Notes
• When you create a file, enter each statement as a single
line with a CRLF only after the last character in the
statement line, and do not enter spaces except where
specified.
• Up to 44 bytes (or characters) string is available for the
clip name.
If the UTF-8 format string exceeds 44 bytes, 44 bytes
string is used as the clip name.
If only ASCII format name is specified, 44 characters
string is used as the clip name.
When neither an ASCII format name string nor UTF-8
format name string can be used, the standard format
clip name is used.
You can use the Sony Planning Metadata Add-in
application software supplied with the CBK-WA01

Wi-Fi Adapter to define clip names. For details, refer
to the Operating Instructions supplied with the CBK-
WA01.
To set clip names
Load a planning metadata file that contains clip
names into this camcorder, select
"OPERATION" > "Clip" > "Auto Naming" (see
page 120) in the setup menu, then select "Plan."
Each time that you record a clip, the camcorder
automatically generates a name consisting of the
clip name defined in the planning metadata file,
with the addition of an underbar (_) and a four-
digit serial number (0001 to 9999).
Examples: Typhoon_Strikes_Tokyo_0001,
Typhoon_Strikes_Tokyo_0002, ...
Note
• When the serial number reaches to 9999, it returns to
0001 with the next recording operation.
• When you load another planning metadata file, the
serial number returns to 0001.
Defining shot mark names in planning
metadata
When you use planning metadata to set shot
marks, you can define names for Shot Mark 0 to
Shot Mark 9.
When you record shot marks, you can add the
shot mark name strings defined in the planning
metadata.
Note
Shot Mark 1 and Shot Mark 2 can be recorded on the
camcorder. Shot Mark 3 to Shot Mark 9 and Shot Mark
0 can be recorded by operation from a computer which is
connected with the camcorder via Wi-Fi.
Shot mark name string example
Use a text editor to modify the fields in the < Meta
name> tag.
The shaded fields in the example are essence
mark name strings. Names can be either in ASCII
format (up to 32 characters) or UTF-8 format (up
to 16 characters).
"sp" indicates a space and 3 indicates a carriage
return.
Note
If a name string contains even one non-ASCII character,
the maximum length of that string is 16 characters.
