Operating Planning Metadata

Recording
When you specify a clip name in planning
metadata, the name is displayed under the
operation status indication on the EVF screen.
Note
When both an ASCII format name and a UTF-8
format name are specified in planning metadata,
the UTF-8 format string is used as the clip name.
If only either ASCII-format name or UTF-8
format name is specified in planning metadata,
the specified name is displayed regardless of the
menu setting.
Example of clip name strings
Use a text editor to modify the description for the
<Title> tag.
The shaded fields in the example are clip name
strings. “Typhoon” is described in ASCII format
(up to 44 characters).
“Typhoon_Strikes_Tokyo” is described in UTF-8
format (up to 44 bytes).
Here, “sp” indicates a space, and 3 indicates a
carriage return.

Notes
• When you create a file, enter each statement as
a single line by breaking a line with a CRLF
only after the last character of the line, and do
not enter spaces except where specified with
“sp.”
• A string of up to 44 bytes (or 44 characters) is
valid as a clip name. If a UTF-8-format string
exceeds 44 bytes, the string up to the 44th byte
is used as the clip name. If only a string in
ASCII format is specified, the ASCII-format
name up to the 44th characters is used as the clip
name. When neither the ASCII-format name
string nor UTF-8-format name string is valid, a
clip name in the standard format is used.
You can use the Sony Planning Metadata Add-in
application software supplied with the CBK-WA01
Wi-Fi Adapter to define clip names. For details, refer
to the Operating Instructions supplied with the CBK-
WA01.
Using a clip name defined in planning
metadata
1 Load a planning metadata file that
contains the clip name into memory of
the camcorder (page 80).
2 Select “Plan” for “Auto Naming” of
“Clip” of the OTHERS menu.
Each time that you record a clip, the
camcorder automatically generates a name
consisting of the clip name defined in the
planning metadata file, with the addition of
an underscore (_) and a 4-digit serial number
(0001 to 9999).
Example: Typhoon_Strikes_Tokyo_0001,
Typhoon_Strikes_Tokyo_0002,...
If the serial number reaches 9999, it returns
to 0001 upon the next recording.
Note
When you load another planning metadata file,
the serial number returns to 0001.
To select the clip name display format
When both an ASCII-format name and a UTF-8-
format name have been specified, use “Clip Name
Disp” under “Plan.Metadata” of the OTHERS
menu to select which one is to display on the LCD
monitor/EVF screen.
To display the ASCII-format name: Select
“Title1.”
The clip name becomes
“Typhoon_Strikes_Tokyo_SerialNumber,” but
“Typhoon_SerialNumber” is displayed on the
screen.
To display the UTF-8 format name: Select
“Title2.”
The clip name becomes
Typhoon
Typhoon_Strikes_Toky
