Chapter 4 Recording and Playback MAINTENANCE connector, you can record shot marks from Shot Mark0 up to Shot Mark9 by pressing the 0 to 9 keys on the numeric keypad. If the unit is set up to display superimposed text information (see page 45), "SHOTMARK*" (*: 0 to 9) appears every time you set an essence mark. When Shot Mark0 to Shot Mark 9 is set, you can search for the shot marks by displaying thumbnails of the frames at those positions (see page 76). You can also use shot mark positions as edit points during scene selection operations (see page 85). You can also set shot marks during playback. See page 64 for the procedure. To set a clip flag You can set one of the three types of flag (OK, NG or KEEP) for the clip while it is being recorded by viewing its video image and using the function menu (see page 51). You can also set a clip flag during playback. See page 64 for details. You can also set a clip flag on the GUI screen. See page 82 for details. Continuing recording while exchanging discs (disc exchange cache function) About 30 seconds (this duration may differ depending on the state of a disc) of video and audio data can be recorded to the unit's internal memory cache during a disc exchange, and then written back to the newly loaded disc. 1 Check that setup menu item 150 REC MODE is set to "disc exchange cache". If the disc exchange cache indication is lit in the time data display area (see page 24) of the basic operation display, setup menu item 150 REC MODE is set to "disc exchange cache". 2 If none of the indications of step 1 appear, set setup menu item 150 REC MODE to "disc exchange cache" (see page 130). The setting of 150 REC MODE can be changed even during recording. However, if you change the setting from "clip continuous rec", the setting change is enabled after the end of Clip Continuous Rec mode recording. 3 Exchange the disc. When recording on the current disc ends, the disc is ejected. Until the next disc is inserted, the unit records to its internal cache memory. Then, after the new disc is inserted, it copies the data from the cache to the disc and resumes normal recording. Disc exchange cache indications and their meanings Indication Meaning Right side of icon Recording to the cache flashes once per second Left side of icon flashes twice per second Remaining memory capacity: Low Whole icon flashes Remaining memory capacity: four times per None (disc full) second "C" indications in superimposed text information and their meanings Indication Meaning "C" flashes once Recording to the cache per second "C" flashes twice Remaining memory capacity: Low per second An alarm message Remaining memory capacity: appears instead of None (disc full) "C". To stop disc exchange cache recording Do any of the following during cache recording. • Press the STOP button. • Set setup menu item 150 REC MODE to "normal". Notes • If the disc becomes full while setup menu item 150 REC MODE is set to "disc exchange cache", the disc is ejected and the unit continues to record to its internal memory (for about 30 seconds depending on the state of a disc). • Recording and playback operations by all buttons and dials other than the STOP button are disabled during cache recording. • If the amount of cache data exceeds the capacity of the unit's internal memory during a disc exchange, an alarm message appears and the data in cache memory is overwritten. The internal memory always contains the latest cache data, so the clip data will be continuous after the next disc is inserted and recording to the disc resumes. 56 Recording
