5-4-5 New File Names

When files are collected on the R2 Port, and new files are
assigned to the RP Port, they are assigned new file names
as shown below.
R2 Port Collection
RP Port New Files
*Where "XXXX", a simple 4-digit number, is added.
When copying existing files, a number is added at the end
of the original file name.
Example: Executing Load Copy on a file named
"Program"
First time Load Copy is executed: Program.1
Second time Load Copy is executed: Program.2
Third time Load Copy is executed: Program.3
If, in the case of the above example, the Load Copy
operation is performed directly on the file "Program.2",
the system will attempt to create "Program.3". However,
since "Program.3" already exists, the system will start a
new branch of numbers as follows:
First time Load Copy is executed: Program.2A.1
Second time Load Copy is executed: Program.2A.2
The last digit at the end of the file name indicates the
number of times Load Copy was executed, while the
portion of the name preceding the last "dot" indicates the
original file name. If multiple branches of duplicates are
made from the original file, a letter is inserted before the
last "dot" in the file name.
Note
If Load Copy is executed repeatedly, the file names will
gradually become longer; if it is no longer possible to add
more characters, the name "%LongName" will be used. In
addition, if all branches have been used (i.e., Load Copy
has been used to generate file names from "ProgramA.1"
to "ProgramZ.1") the name "%MaxBranch" will be used.
Because these alternate names do not bear any relation to
the name of the original file, rename such duplicates with
a shorter file name as soon as possible.

5-4-6 Monitoring the RP Port

When either the R1 or P1 key is pressed, both R1 and P1
light to indicate that the RP port is selected. However, the
monitored output differs according to which key was
pressed.
When the R1 key was pressed
In this status, you will see "Inp Adj" displayed in the upper
left corner of the display panel.
Signals applied to the R1 input terminal are also present at
the monitor output. The status is the same as INPUT
CHECK with a VTR.
5-8 (E)
5-4 Basic Operations in BVE Mode
BG#XXXX
NEW#XXXX
Audio volume and input signal selection at the meter panel
apply to the recording material for INSERT/ASSEMBLE
operation.
When the P1 key was pressed
The signal supplied to the R1 port is output in the EE status
when the monitor output is an RP port playback signal, or
when PB/EE has been specified.
Audio volume and video process level at the meter panel
apply to the playback signal.
After pressing the P1 key, perform REMOTE setup of the
RP port. REMOTE mode

5-4-7 Pre-roll Time

When using this unit as the player during DMC editing,
the setting should be at least five seconds.
Also, with DMC editing, the insertion point may be
displaced by one frame.

5-4-8 File Backup Function

If the power to the MAV-777 is accidentally cut while you
are editing a file, the "Backupxxxxx" file (where xxxxx is
the date, for example: 05.20-14:00) is automatically
created. Therefore, if this happens and the edited file is
deleted, you can continue editing using the backup file.
However, if the edited file is unloaded before the power is
cut, backup is not possible. Further, because the cut point
information is not saved along with the backup file, you
cannot perform cut jumps or trim cuts in this file.
You can unload files from the MAVE-D555 and BKMA-
505.
For details about unloading files, refer to the MAVE-D555 and
BKMA-505 operation manuals.
5-4-9 Editing-Related Error
Messages
There are some unique editing function-related errors
which may occur in BVE mode that do not exist in other
modes. These error messages and their remedies are
described below.
[Cut Entry Full]
In BVE mode, cut information for the file being edited
is stored internally. Although this information cannot be
used in linear editing, it can be used as cut information
for nonlinear editing when the MAVE-F555 is
connected.
There is a limit on the number of cuts per file. The [Cut
Entry Full] error appears when this limit has been
reached, and indicates that the file in question cannot be
edited any further.
