Limitations
• When you copy a clip with a duration that exceeds six
hours, the clip is divided into separate clips at each six-
hour point.
• Essence marks are limited to one per second when you
convert and copy from the MP4 format to the MXF
format.
• Index picture settings may be displaced forward or
backward when you execute a copy.
• When an MXF clip on SxS memory card, Professional
Disc or internal storage is copied, the UMID data of the
copy source clip is maintained intact. If the copy
destination media contains a clip with same UMID data
as the clip selected as copy source, it is not possible to
copy the selected clip. Change UMID data on an external
device, or make transfer of the copy source clip via the
network.
When an MP4/AVI clip on an SxS memory card or
Professional Disc is copied, new UMID data is
automatically generated and added to the copy source
clip. Therefore, copying is possible even if on the copy
destination there is a clip with same UMID data as the
copy source clip.
For the state of UMID data when a clip is transferred via
the network, see "SITE UMMD" under "Extended
commands" (page 100).
• Seamless playback and clip flag operations (addition,
modification, and deletion) are not supported for MXF
clips and for independent AV files (files without
metadata, consisting of video and audio data only) that
meet the following conditions.
- Clips containing 1000 or more essence marks
- Clips containing 10804 or more timecode breaks
