Serial numbers are not reset when you power the
unit off or exchange discs (newly generated
numbers are continuous on the old ones).
If the ASCII format clip name string is longer
than 14 characters, it is displayed in the
viewfinder as the first 8 characters + x
(abbreviated) + the last 4 characters, for a total of
13 characters.
To check clip names
Press the THUMBNAIL button to display the
thumbnail screen, and select the clip whose name
you want to check.
The name of the selected clip appears in the upper
left of the screen.
See “Clip thumbnail screen” (page 109) for more
information.
Note
The item at the upper left of the screen is displayed
according to the following order of priority.
Title > user-defined clip name > standard format clip
name
Therefore, the display of this item changes as follows,
depending on whether or not there is a title.
When a title has been set as a clip name on this unit,
the title is displayed for clips recorded on this unit.
The user-defined name or standard format name is
displayed for clips without a title.
To check clip information (name, title,
etc.)
For details, see “Checking clip properties”
(page 123).
To set essence mark names by using
planning metadata
You can use planning metadata to specify user-
defined names for the Shot Mark0 to Shot Mark 9
essence marks that correspond to the 0 to 9 keys
on a USB keyboard. When planning metadata that
contains user-defined essence mark name strings
is loaded into this unit’s memory, the unit
displays those names for the essence marks that
correspond to the keys and that are recorded when
the keys are pressed.
See page 87 for more information about recording
essence marks, and see page 101 for more
information about how to load files.
Essence mark name string format
Use a text editor to enter essence mark names in
the sections indicated by shading in “Essence
mark name string example”. Names can be either
in ASCII format (up to 32 characters) or UTF-8
format (up to 16 characters).
Note
If a name string contains even one non-ASCII character,
the maximum length of that string is 16 characters.
