Notes
• When [DVCAM] is selected, there are some limitations described below.
– ATN (Absolute Track Number) outputs the value counted in DVCAM format during
playback at regular speed (
×1) or recording of the internal color bars only.
During playback at irregular speeds other than described above, ATN outputs the value
of a tape recorded in HDV format.
– When the unit is playing back at regular speed (
×1) while detecting a blank portion on
the tape, the unit counts the blank portion as ATN-formatted in DVCAM.
– When using the duplicating function that is equipped with a device such as the DSR-25/
45/50, select [DVCAM].
– Please note that a duplicated tape and the source tape recorded in HDV format with
[DVCAM] selected do not share the same ATN (Time code value is displayed
correctly).
• When you change the video format setting of [DOWN CONVERT] of [i.LINK SET] in [IN/
OUT REC] menu, the video signal output from COMPONENT OUT jacks, S VIDEO OUT
jack, or VIDEO OUT jack may be distorted for a moment.
• Before changing your setting, be sure to disconnect the i.LINK cable. If you change the
setting while i.LINK is connected, the video device may not recognize the new setting.
• When you select [EDGE CROP], the outputs of S VIDEO and VIDEO are limited.
