this means that the field corresponding to the selected TimeCode does
not exist on disk any longer.
To exit the GOTO TC function at any time, press the MENU key.
USEFUL FACILITY : When in CLIP mode
This enables the operator to go to IN / OUT points of CLIPS, instantly!
LOOP : (This function is not available with HCTS + COH HD or HD/SD
compatible hardware)
Enables the internal loop mode. Select this option, the button will flash
RED when in this mode and “LOOP” will appear on the OSD of the
monitoring outputs. When the LOOP mode is activated, the PGM1 output
is internally routed to the CAM A input of the server (audio and video, or
video only, depending on the “Internal Loop Mode” parameter of the setup
menu, p. 2.2 F6).
Note: Loop on COHX codecs (XT[2])
When selecting the loop function on COHX, the OSD monitoring on the SD/HD SDI output
will be disabled. The loop has to be cabled from the HD/SD monitoring output of
PGM1 to the Loop In connector.
This is very useful to “consolidate” effects and edits, or adding live sound
or music or voice to previously recorded material when only the video is
looped back into the server.
Example of use to consolidate a playlist : Load the playlist, activate the
LOOP mode and roll the playlist. The playlist will be recorded onto the
disks (Channel 1 – CAM A) as a continuous video/audio stream. Exit the
playlist mode and go back to LIVE record. Simply jog back and you will
see the playlist recorded with all its transitions and at the speed they
were played. Now it can be stored as one big clip (This can be useful if
some of the 50 playlist locations need to be made available). You can
also use this function for any effect that you would like to record as
regular video inside the server (split screen, target tracking, painting,
etc). Depending on the parameter in the setup menu, both video and
audio can be looped back into the system, or only the video track is
looped and the system keeps recording the live audio at the same time.
Note: when playing back at 200% in loop mode, then replaying the looped sequence at
50%, you can obtain a “film effect”.
RETURN:
Inside a clip, press the RETURN key to remain on the same picture, but
inside the record train instead of the clip (if that picture still exists in the
record train). This is useful when a clip is too tight and you want to use
material beyond the current IN or OUT point.
