Card continuity provided by the user bits
If the menu option UB MODE is set to "REGEN", the AJ-
SPX800P reads the user bits in the last frame of the last clip
recorded on a P2 card (clip with the most recent recording date
and time), and records that bit onto the next card. Note that
settings for the user bits are not recorded.
The menu option UB MODE can be found in the <TC/UB>
screen, which is accessible from the MAIN OPERATION page.
<Note>
The AJ-SPX800P also records the time code and user bits in the
VIDEO AUX area. The value for the time code (VITC) is the
same as that of the time code (LTC) in the sub-code area. The
user bits (of VITC) also records special information, including the
shoting frame rate.
