power off, clips are reconstructed on the basis of
markers recorded on the disc when the disc is
loaded in this unit. Therefore, processing takes
longer than for a quick salvage (about 30 seconds,
although it depends on the state of the disc).
Proceed as follows to perform a full salvage.
1
Insert the disc on which recording did
not end normally.
The following salvage message appears.
SALVAGE
TO RECORD ON THE
DISC, IT IS NECESSARY
TO EXECUTE SALVAGE.
SALVAGE OK?
YES
2
Turn the MENU knob to move b to
"YES", and press the MENU knob.
Salvage processing starts, and the message
"EXECUTING" appears.
A results message appears when the
processing finishes.
• If the salvage succeeded, the message
"COMPLETED" appears.
• If the salvage failed, the message
"INCOMPLETED" appears. Clips for
which recording did not end normally are
lost.
To exit without salvaging
Select NO in step 1 to exit without performing
salvage processing.
However, the status of the disc does not change.
Salvage is still required to recover the clips for
which recording did not end normally. The
salvage message will appear again when that disc
is inserted again, or when the camcorder is
powered on again.
Notes
• If salvage processing is not done, sections
which were recorded normally can be played
back, but no new recording can be done on the
disc.
• Full salvage of discs recorded by this camcorder
can be performed with the PDW-F1600, PDW-
HD1500, PDW-F800, or PDW-700. Full
salvage cannot be performed with any other
XDCAM device. The following message may
