Managing Images Using a DDR/VTR

Using a DDR/VTR for High-speed Backup and Restoring

You can save all files currently held in frame memory as a backup data set, by
high-speed recording on video tape or other medium.
To restore the folder structure, it is necessary to save the automatically
generated file list (of file name, length of clip, and so on) in memory.
Notes
At the beginning of this backup data a red or blue image is automatically
inserted when the data is created. Do not delete this image, as it is required for
restoring the data.

Notes
Before starting the backup, it is necessary to select the FM output to record on
an AUX bus, for example, and input the AUX output to the DDR/VTR.
