Playback

This section describes playback of video and audio on the
unit.

Before starting playback, make the following settings and
adjustments.
Selection of time data to display: Select with CNTR SEL

on page P1 of the function menu.

Selection of audio channels to monitor: Select with

MONI CH and MONI SEL on page P1 of the function
menu.

Volume adjustment of the monitor audio: Adjust with

the LEVEL knob.

Remote/local setting: Set the remote control switch. If

you set it to REMOTE, also set the setup menu item
INTERFACE SELECT >REMOTE I/F (“REMOTE”
and the connector used appear on the display).

Disc playback start position

Although this unit uses optical discs, it is designed to offer
the most convenient features of tape playback by VTRs.
One of these is the playback start position, which works in
the same way as tape, as described below.

After playback stop
The unit stops at the position where the STOP button was
pressed.
Press the PLAY button to resume playback at the stop
position.

After recording
The unit stops at the position where recording ended.
To play back a clip, press the PREV button to move to the
start frame of any clip, or press the PREV button with the
PLAY button held down to move to any position.

After disc insertion
The unit stops at the position of the disc when it was most
recently ejected.
Press the PLAY button to resume playback at the most
recent position.
The playback position is saved to the disc when the disc is
ejected, which allows playback to start at that position
whenever it is loaded into any XDCAM player.

This function is not available when the Write Inhibit tab of
the disc is set to the recording disabled position, and when
REC INH on page P1 of the function menu is set to “ON”.
The REC INH indicator may light when neither of the
above is true if the format of recorded sections on the disc
is not the same as the recording settings of this unit. In this
case, the playback position can be saved to the disc.

Playback Operation

This section describes the following types of playback:
Normal playback: Playback at normal speed
Playback in jog mode: Variable-speed playback, with the

speed determined by the speed of turning the jog dial

Playback in shuttle mode: Variable-speed playback, with

the speed determined by the angular position of the
shuttle dial

Playback in variable-speed mode: Variable-speed

playback, with the speed finely determined by the
angular position of the shuttle dial

Normal playback

For details of how to insert a disc, see “Loading and
Unloading a Disc” on page 40.

To start playback
Press the PLAY button.
Playback starts.
When two or more clips are recorded on the disc, they are
played back continuously.

No audio is output when non-audio signals are played
back.

To jump to the next or previous clip, then start
playback
Use the PREV button, NEXT button, jog dial, or shuttle
dial.

To stop playback
Press the STOP button.
If you play back to the end of the last clip, playback
automatically stops.
If, in this state, you press the PLAY button, the message
“ALARM DISC END.” appears on the display.
