In the above example,

sp

indicates a space and

3 indicates

a carriage return.

• 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.

Setting clip names

1

Load a planning metadata file containing clip names
into the unit’s memory (see page 80).

2

Carry out steps 2 to 5 of to set the “To assign clip
names on this unit” (page 88)
.

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 81).

• 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.
