Clip Transition Operations - Sony MVS-8000X User Manual

Playing back ancillary data
You can play ancillary data recorded in a frame memory
clip by normal playback or an auto transition of the clip
transition.
To play the ancillary data, you must use the following
procedure to enable playback of the ancillary data.
For the subsequent playback operation, see "Clip
Playback" (page 169).
Notes
• After recording a frame memory clip, the ancillary data
state is enabled for playback.
• To play back the clip, set the signal output to through
mode.
For the method of setting through mode, see "Signal
Output Settings (Output Menu)" in Chapter 20
(Volume 2).
• When the reposition function is on, ancillary data cannot
be played back.
• Switching reposition function between on and off may
cause noise.
• Only the AUX bus and edit preview bus can output
ancillary data.
• For loop playback of clips in the following video
formats, the loop playback range must be at least 5
frames, and set to a multiple of 5 frames.
- 480i/59.94
- 720P/59.94
- 1080i/59.94
- 1080PsF/29.97
• Recalling operations of still images or clips can cause
noise.
• Carrying out file operations on a frame memory clip may
result in the ancillary data being discontinuous, or in
noise occurring. However, if the first or last frame of the
clip is deleted, noise will not occur.
• The audio sampling frequency is always 48 kHz.
• In the case of 480i or 59.94, noise may occur at the
beginning of playing back a clip. This can be avoided by
making the first nine or more frames of the clip
soundless.
• When you play back the recorded embedded audio,
depending on the device to be used, noises are produced
at the playback start point and end point. For details of
devices that are used for playback, contact your Sony
service or sales representative.

Clip Transition
Operations
A frame memory clip (movie) is played back, linked to a
transition using a mix (dissolve) or wipe.
The following restrictions apply to the use of a clip
transition.
• Key frame capture is not possible.
• It is not possible to apply a pattern limit.
• Transitions executed in two strokes, such as a preset
color mix with the stroke mode set to Normal, or a DME
wipe with a picture-in-picture pattern, will not execute
correctly.
• It is not possible to vary the transition rate of a clip
transition.
• Transition preview cannot be used.
• No instantaneous state of a clip transition can be saved
as a snapshot.
• When recalling a snapshot including a clip transition
during executing another clip transition, the follow-on
transition does not operate properly. Be sure to complete
the transition before recalling a snapshot.
Notes
When a clip transition is selected as the transition type, if
one of the wipe direction selection buttons in the transition
control block is lit, it indicates the direction of clip
playback.
Setting a clip transition
The following example describes the case of a clip
transition using FM 1&2 Clip on the M/E-1 bank.
Notes
To use a clip transition effectively, the image from the
frame memory clip being played back during the clip
transition should be seen in the M/E-1 program output. For
example, inserting a key using frame memory output 1 and
frame memory output 2.
1
Display the M/E-1 >Misc >Transition menu, and in the
<Transition Type> group select "FM1&2 Clip."
