Clip name string example 3 3 3 Typhoon_Strikes_Tokyo 3 3 3 In the above example, sp indicates a space and 3 indicates a carriage return. Notes • When creating a file, write each line as a single statement, inserting carriage returns only at the indicated carriage return locations, and inserting no unspecified spaces. • If the UTF-8 format string is longer than 52 characters, the ASCII format string is used as the clip name string. To set clip names 1 Load a planning metadata file containing clip names into the unit's memory (see page 94). 2 Carry out steps 2 to 5 of to set the "To assign clip names on this unit" (page 111). 3 Turn the PUSH SET(S.SEL) knob to display "PLAN", and then press the PUSH SET(S.SEL) knob. Each time that you start recording, the unit automatically creates clip names using the names specified in the planning metadata file. An underscore (_) and a three-digit serial number (001 to 999) is appended to each clip name. Examples of automatically generated clip names Clip names displayed in the video monitor screenr: Typhoon_001, Typhoon_002, ... The actually recorded clip names: Typhoon_Strikes_Tokyo_001, Typhoon_Strikes_Tokyo_002, ... 1) 1) When display of the ASCII format clip name has been selected (see page 95). Notes • The serial numbers return to 001 on the next recording operation if you reach number 999. • Serial numbers are not reset when you power the unit off or exchange discs (newly generated numbers are continuous on the old ones). • If the ASCII format clip name string is longer than 14 characters, it is displayed in the viewfinder as the first 8 characters + x (abbreviated) + the last 4 characters, for a total of 13 characters. Setting essence mark names by using planning metadata You can use planning metadata to specify user-defined names for the Shot Mark0 to Shot Mark9 essence marks that correspond to the 0 to 9 keys on a USB keyboard. When planning metadata that contains user-defined essence mark name strings is loaded into this unit's memory, the unit displays those names for the essence marks that correspond to the keys and that are recorded when the keys are pressed. See page 55 for more information about recording essence marks, and see page 155 for more information about how to load files. Essence mark name string format Use a text editor to enter essence mark names in the sections indicated by shading in "Essence mark name string example". Names can be either in ASCII format (up to 32 characters) or UTF-8 format (up to 16 characters). Note If a name string contains even one non-ASCII character, the maximum length of that string is 16 characters.
