9-3 Recording Time Codes in Continuation of Time Codes Recorded on Tape

The GY-DV500 also incorporates a time code reader. Therefore, when the unit enters record mode from record-pause mode, it can
read the time code data recorded on the tape and record time codes in continuation of the existing data. The recorded user's bit
data is identical to the user's bit data recorded on tape.
* However, approximately ±1-frame variations may occur in scene transition accuracy.
To enable this, set the time code related switches as follows before starting recording.
