in the “C*” part is also deleted automatically.
Notes
• Directories cannot be created in the Clip directory.
• When the following operations, supported by version 1.5
and higher XDCAM devices, are carried out on a disc,
then it becomes impossible for version 1.4x and lower
XDCAM devices to record new clips or delete existing
clips on that disc. (The only possible operations are
playback and disc formatting.)
- Writing of clips with user-defined names
- Locking of clips
- Deletion of clips (except the last recorded clip)
• If you attempt to write a C*.MXF file which does not
meet the conditions specified as remark c) on this table
via a FAM connection, a Windows error message
appears to the effect that the file or directory is corrupt
and cannot be read.

e) Only when the write inhibit tab on the disc is set to enable recording, and
when extended menu item 310 “REC INHIBIT” is set to “off.”
f) With firmware version 1.5 and higher, when the “E*E01” part of an
E*E01.SMI file name is changed, an E*M01.XML file with the same
name in the “E*” part is generated automatically.
g) When an E*E01.SMI file is created, an E*M01.XML file with the same
name in the “E*” part is created automatically.

name in the “E*” part is also deleted automatically.

Sub directory

defined names in the “C*” part.
