VITC POSITION SEL-2

Select a line into which to insert VITC signals for IMX recording signals

a)

and DVCAM playback signals.

b)

12 H (12 line)... 18 H (18 line)... 20 H (20 line) (in 525(U)/525(J) line

modes)

9 H (9 line)... 21 H (21 line)... 22 H (22 line) (in 625 line mode)

Note

You can insert the VITC signal in two places. To insert it in two places, set
both items 601 and 602.

a) In the IMX format, VITC is inserted as video signals in vertical blanking sections.

Because these signals are output as video signals during playback, the insertion
line can be specified only for recording.

b) In the DVCAM format, VITC is recorded as VAUX (Video Auxiliary) data.

Because VITC is inserted into video signals by the VITC generator only during
playback, the insertion line can be specified only for playback.
