Chapter 11 Additional Functions from the Optional Board - Video encoder board (AG‑YDX600G) ffIn the [PROXY REM] item, check the remaining recording time of the proxy data. The remaining SD memory card capacity displayed (PROXY REM) indicates the remaining proxy recording, but it may differ from the actual available space. If short recordings are repeated, the available recording time may decrease significantly compared to the available space. When the remaining capacity exceeds 999 min, [999min] is displayed. If the proxy is not recorded to the SD memory card, the remaining time is not displayed. ffIn the [NUMBER OF CLIPS] item, check the number of clips recorded in the SD memory card. If the number of clips exceeds 1000, no additional proxy data can be recorded to the SD memory card even if there is available capacity. ffShot marks and text memos cannot be added to the clips in the SD memory card, ffDeleting the clips recorded on the P2 card on the thumbnail screen does not delete the proxy data recorded on the SD memory card. ffThe proxy data cannot be recorded to the SD memory card containing data for updating. @@NOTE tt While recording to the SD memory card, the remaining capacity can be checked with the mode check on the viewfinder screen. tt If the [REC MEDIA] item on the setting menu [PROXY SETTING] screen is set to [P2&SD] and the proxy data cannot be recorded to the SD memory card, [SD CARD WRITE ERR] is displayed when recording starts. In that case, check the SD memory card. For details, refer to "Error displays about proxy data recordings" (page 165). tt Data deleted as a result of formatting cannot be restored.
