Select a line into which to insert VITC signals for IMX recording signals
and DVCAM playback signals.
12 H (12 line)... 18 H (18 line)... 20 H (20 line) (in 525(U)/525(J) line
9 H (9 line)... 21 H (21 line)... 22 H (22 line) (in 625 line mode)
Note
You can insert the VITC signal in two places. To insert it in two places, set
both items 601 and 602.
a) In the IMX format, VITC is inserted as video signals in vertical blanking sections.
b) In the DVCAM format, VITC is recorded as VAUX (Video Auxiliary) data.
Select the signal to be regenerated when the time code generator is in
the regeneration mode (i.e., when "int regen," "ext regen" or "rp188
regen" is selected in menu item 626).
TC&UB: Both the time code and user bits are regenerated.
TC: Only the time code is regenerated.
UB: Only the user bits are regenerated.
Select the user bits to be used in the time code generated by the time
code generator.

Even if this item is set to "off," VITC is recorded if the input video signal
contains VITC and the VITC line is set to "thru" with item 723.
