Sony XDS-PD1000 Operation Manual page 9

• Direct control for editing from a nonlinear editor using
CIFS PROTOCAL
Multitasking operation
Chase play
You can perform chase play of material being recorded.
Support for multiple network connection
sessions, and the chase transfer facility
It is possible to individually control multiple sessions
using FTP/CIFS protocol (XDS-PD1000: up to eight
sessions; XDS-1000: up to four sessions).
You can use FTP/CIFS protocol to transfer the material
being recorded (the chase transfer function).
The XDS-PD2000 allows for direct access to material on
the SSD using CIFS protocol. It also allows for a "chase
editing" function, enabling the material being recorded to
be laid on the timeline.
Multifunction operations
You can perform the following operations in parallel on
individual clips.
• Record signals input to the HD/SD-SDI INPUT
connector to internal storage
• Copy to internal storage from Professional Discs/SxS
memory cards
• Copy from internal storage to Professional Discs
• Play clips that have been recorded to the internal storage/
Professional Discs
• Upload and download via FTP/CIFS connections
The XDS-PD2000 makes it possible to perform a copy/
network transfer operation at higher speeds than the
XDS-1000/XDS-PD1000.
Recording and playback functions
Support for multiple SD/HD codecs
In addition to the MPEG HD422 codec, this unit supports
1)
the MPEG HD codec. It can record HD 4:2:0 digital
component files at both 1080i (35/25/18 Mbps
2)
720P (35/25 Mbps ), allowing HD operation across a
wide range of recording times and application objectives.
It can also record SD files (at IMX30/40/50 Mbps
DVCAM codec).
1) MPEG HD is a registered trademark of Sony Corporation.
2) SDI recording only supported for 35 Mbps, and playback only supported
for 25 Mbps and 18 Mbps.
3) SDI recording only supported for 50 Mbps.
Support for multiple frame frequencies
This unit can record and play at multiple frame
frequencies: 1080/59.94i, 50i, 29.97P, 25P, and 23.98P or
720/59.94P and 50P (for MPEG HD422).
Support for mixed format recording mode
You can record clips to the internal storage at different
system frequencies and in different formats (HD422/
HD420).
As long as the frame frequency group is the same, clips in
different recording formats can be recorded or written to
the same Professional Disc.
1) The recording format is regarded as different whenever the system
frequency, video resolution, video codec/bit rate, or number of audio
channels or number of bits does not match.
The system frequencies supported by this unit are divided
into frame frequency groups, as shown in the following
table.
Frame frequency group System frequency
59.94 Hz
50 Hz
23.98 Hz
Note
Continuous playback may not be possible at the transition
point between two clips with different recording formats.
Simultaneous recording to the internal storage
and a Professional Disc
This unit allows for simultaneous recording to the internal
storage and a Professional Disc.
(Simultaneous recording can be performed by
simultaneously executing recording to the internal storage
and copying from the internal storage to the Professional
Disc.)
SD upconvert function
The unit is provided with an upconvert function.
You can input SD signals to the HD/SD-SDI INPUT
2)
) and
connector and record them as HD signals.
HD downconvert function
3)
or by
The unit is provided with a downconvert function. HD clip
playback signals can be downconverted to SD signals and
then output as SD-SDI or composite signals. This allows
you to use this unit for editing and program output in an SD
environment.
1080/720 cross-conversion
This unit supports cross-conversion output. It can output
720 while playing media recorded as 1080, and output
1080 while playing media recorded as 720.
