To set clip names by using planning
metadata
Planning metadata is a file that contains metadata
about the clips to be shot and recorded.
The following two types of clip name strings can
be written in a planning metadata file.
The ASCII format name that appears in the
viewfinder
1)
The UTF-8 format name that is actually
registered as the clip name
2)
1)It is also possible to display the UTF-8 format name,
or no name (see page 123).
2)When no UTF-8 format name string is specified, the
ASCII format name string is registered as the actual
clip name.
By loading a file from one of the following
locations into the unit's memory before starting to
shoot, you can register the names in the file as clip
names.
To load files, use a GUI screen (see page 121).
File creation rules
a) The General/Sony/Planning directory is generated
automatically when you format a disc.
Clip name string format
In a text editor, modify the two fields in the
<Title> tag that contain the clip name strings (the
shaded fields in the example below).
Enter a name in the first field in ASCII format (up
to 52 characters), and enter another name in the
second field in UTF-8 format (up to 52 bytes).

Notes
When creating a file, write each line as a single
statement, inserting carriage returns only at the
indicated carriage return locations, and inserting no
unspecified spaces.
If the UTF-8 format string is longer than 52 characters,
the ASCII format string is used as the clip name string.
