<Cautions when playing back consumer DV tapes and DVCAM tapes>
• Consumer DV tapes which have been recorded in the LP mode cannot be played back.
• When materials which have been recorded on consumer DV tapes or DVCAM tapes are to
be edited, record them onto a DVCPRO tape or tape of any other broadcasting VTR for use.
• The maximum transport speed for consumer DV tapes and DVCAM tapes is 32 times the
normal tape speed.
• The video images may be disturbed during slow motion playback of consumer-use tapes.
• From the viewpoint of protecting the tape, minimize repeated cue-up at the same location
on a consumer-use tape.
• The maximum STILL TIMER time is set to 20 seconds when a consumer-use tape is used.
• The sampling rate of the audio signals recorded on a consumer-use tape is 48 kHz. When
the AJ-YAD455P digital video interface board is used, audio signals can be recorded at a
rate of 44.1 kHz or 32 kHz on a consumer-use tape only when DVCPRO/DV signals are
input.
• During recording on a consumer-use tape, scenes can be recorded with continuity between
frames by exercising control from the controller or personal computer (when the AJ-
YAD455P digital video interface board is used) which has the REC/PAUSE command.
However, in this case, the video and sound for the one frame before and after the continuity
point may be disturbed.
Use the cassette adapter (AJ-CS455P) for the mini DV cassette tapes.
Bear in mind that long-playing mini DV cassette tapes (standard mode: 80
minutes/LP mode: 120 minutes) cannot be used.
Also bear in mind that recordings cannot be made on a tape when the
AJ-CS750 cassette adapter is used.
Use of Panasonic consumer DV cassette tapes is recommended.
Remember to refrain from inserting a mini DV cassette without using the
cassette adapter since malfunctioning or problems may result.
