Copying

Overview

This unit enables a copy of clips, EDLs, and files between
internal storage, Professional Disc, and SxS memory card.
By copying clips/EDLs on an SxS memory card or a
Professional Disc to the internal storage, you can reuse the
SxS memory card and the Professional Disc as recording
media. This is a convenient practice for long hours
shootings using XDCAM/XDCAM EX camcorders.
MP4/MXF/AVI clips on an SxS memory card/
Professional Disc are copied to the internal storage as
follows.
MP4/AVI clips: Clips in MP4 format are converted to
1)
MXF clips and copied to the MXF clip recording
area managed by this unit. The copied clips can be
handled as normal clips on the internal storage.
MXF clips: Clips in MXF format are copied with no
format conversions to the MXF clip recording area
managed by this unit. The copied clips can be handled
as normal clips on the internal storage.
