Copying could not be performed because the recording capacity of the copy destination is insufficient.
- [UNKNOWN CONTENTS FORMAT!]
Copying could not be performed because a defective clip is selected.

- [TOO MANY CLIPS!]
Copying could not be performed because there are too many clips selected.
t If the copying is performed while a text memo is selected in the lower part of the text memo, the section between the selected text memo position and
the next text memo will be copied. If no text memo is found after the selected one, then the part after the selected text memo to the end of the clip is
copied. For details, refer to "Using a text memo to divide a clip and copy the necessary portion" (page 118).

select [NO] when not overwriting the clip.

Setting clip metadata

Information such as the name of the person who shot the video, the name of the reporter, the shooting location, or text memos can be loaded from an
SD memory card, and can be recorded as clip metadata.
Clip metadata items
Clip metadata includes the following items. Underlined items can be set by loading the metadata upload file on the SD memory card. Other items are
set automatically during shooting. Using the latest update version of P2 Viewer Plus, metadata upload files can be written to SD memory cards using a
