Limitations
• When you copy a clip with a duration that exceeds six
hours, the clip is divided into separate clips at each six-
hour point.
• Essence marks are limited to one per second when you
convert and copy from the MP4 format to the MXF
format.
• Index picture settings may be displaced forward or
backward when you execute a copy.
• When an MXF clip is copied, the UMID data of the copy
source clip is maintained intact. If the copy destination
media contains a clip with same UMID data as the clip
selected as copy source, it is not possible to copy the
selected clip. Change UMID data on an external device,
or make transfer of the copy source clip via the network.
When an MP4/AVI clip is copied, new UMID data is
automatically generated and added to the copy source
clip. Therefore, copying is possible even if on the copy
destination there is a clip with same UMID data as the
copy source clip.
For the state of UMID data when a clip is transferred via
the network, see "SITE UMMD" under "Extended
commands" (page 87).
• Seamless playback and clip flag operations (addition,
modification, and deletion) are not supported for MXF
clips and for independent AV files (files without
metadata, consisting of video and audio data only) that
meet the following conditions.
- Clips containing 1000 or more essence marks
- Clips containing 10804 or more timecode breaks
- Clips with metadata files *M01.XML more than 2 MB
