Overview

From SxS memory cards to
Professional Discs
Reusing SxS memory cards after backing
up clips to Professional Discs
You can reuse SxS memory cards as recording media. To
do so, make backup copies of the clips on the SxS memory
cards to Professional Discs and then delete the clips from
the SxS memory cards. This operating method is suitable
for extended recording with XDCAM EX camcorders.
MXF clips and MP4/AVI clips
If you specify the UserData directory as the copy
destination, MXF, MP4, and AVI format clips are copied
with no format conversions.
Clips copied to the UserData directory can be written back
to an SxS memory card.
See page 31 for information about operations.

method is suitable for times when you want to edit
materials immediately after shooting them.

Clips in these formats are converted to MXF clips and
copied to the MXF clip recording area managed by

normal clips on Professional Discs.
