Chapter 4 Scene Selection Clips Material recorded with this unit is managed in units called "clips". A clip contains the material between a recording start point and a recording end point. Clips have numbers beginning with C, for example C0001. Recording start point of Recording end clip 2 point of clip 2 Clip 1 (C0001) Clip 2 (C0002) Clip 3 (C0003) Clip 4 (C0004) Sub clips (clips in clip lists) The specified clips (or parts of clips) in a clip list are called "sub clips". Sub clips are virtual data specifying ranges in the original clips. Clip data in the original clips is not overwritten. The following figure shows the relation between clips and sub clips. Clips on disc Clip 1 (C0001) Clip 2 (C0002) Clip 3 (C0003) Clip 4 (C0004) Clip list (E0001) Clip number Sub clip 1 Sub clip 2 Sub clip 3 In the above example, the whole of clip 2 has been added as sub clip 1, and the whole of clip 4 has been added as sub clip 2. Sub clip 3 is part of clip 3. Therefore, when clip list E0001 is played back, clip 4 is played after clip 2, and then the part of clip 3 shown in gray color is played. Instead of using clip numbers, you can manage clips by assigning clip titles. For details, see "Assigning Clip Titles" (page 65). Clip lists Data called a "clip list" is created when you use the scene selection function to select desired clips from the clips stored on a disc. Clip lists have numbers beginning with E, for example E0001. Up to 99 clip lists can be saved on a disc. Clip list number Clip list editing (current clip list) To edit a clip lists, you need to load the clip from the disc into the internal unit memory. The clip list which is currently loaded into the unit memory is called the "current clip list". The current clip list is always the target of sub clip creation and editing. Clip list playback also uses the current clip list. After creating and editing a clip list, you need to save it to disc.
