Rerecording the Time Code—TC
Insert Function
The TC insert function makes it possible to use the internal
time code generator to rewrite time code or user bits when
the time code recorded on a tape is discontinuous.
When recording in DVCAM format, you can start
recording time code from an initial value which can be set
freely (see page 46).
Notes
Use a tape which is recorded in the DVCAM format.
(You cannot use the TC insert function with a tape
recorded in DV format.)
The time code recording starts from the current tape
position. Cue the tape up beforehand to the required start
position.
If you use a tape on which ClipLink log data is recorded,
the ClipLink log data will be lost.
