Chapter 1 Chapter 1 Overview Overview 1) MPEG HD is a trademark of Sony Corporation. Features The PDW-F70 is a professional disc recorder supporting HD playback and recording with Professional Disc 1) media. When you use this unit in combination with a nonlinear editing system, the FAM 2) function enables data file transfers between the unit and computers over the i.LINK interface, allowing the unit to be used like an external hard drive.
Chapter 1 Overview resolution data stream. Whenever this unit records fullresolution MPEG HD data, it simultaneously generates and records low-resolution proxy AV data. Because of its small size, proxy AV data can be transferred quickly over computer networks, easily edited in the field with laptop computers, 1) and readily used in a wide variety of applications, such as content management on small-scale servers.
Other features Variety of remote control units • Infrared remote commander (supplied) • RS-232C 9-pin remote control • RS-422A 9-pin remote control • Minijack 4-pole remote control Color LCD display The unit is equipped with a 16:9, 3.5-inch color LCD which allows you to check the contents of the disc and use the menu system without connecting an external monitor. Features of the PDBK-101/102/103/ 104 Option Boards The following option boards provide expanded functions and interfaces for the unit.

Clips Sub clips (clips in clip lists) Material recorded with this unit is managed in units called “clips”. A clip contains the material between a recording start point and a recording end point. Clips have numbers beginning with C, for example C0001. The specified clips (or parts of clips) in a clip list are called “sub clips”. Sub clips are virtual data specifying ranges in the original clips. Clip data in the original clips is not overwritten.
Assigning Clip Titles CLIP AUTO TITLING When the setup menu item OPERATIONAL FUNCTION >CLIP TITLE >AUTO TITLE (see page 87) is set to “ENABLE”, titles are displayed instead of clip numbers for all clips recorded after the setting is made.

The CLIP MENU appears after the trim is executed. If you press the SHIFT + SET buttons instead of the SET button, you return to the state after step 4 in “Basic Operations”, allowing you execute another trim. 6 By default, the start timecode (LTC) for the current clip list is set to “00:00:00:00”. To set this to a different value, proceed as follows. 1 Save the current clip list to disc. Carry out steps 1 to 4 of the procedure in “Basic Operations” (see page 67) (select TC PRESET in step 2).
However, if you press the SUB CLIP button to turn it off, and then press it again to light it, the playback start position is reset to the start of the clip list. With the SUB CLIP button lit, press the PLAY button. You can repeat playback of the current clip list by setting SET UP >OPERATIONAL FUNCTION >REPEAT MODE to ON. Saving the Current Clip List to Disc Notes • Edited clip list data is not saved unless you carry out this operation.
Use the supplied PDZ-1 Proxy Browsing Software. For details, see the PDZ-1 online help. Managing Clip Lists After you create or edit a clip list, you can use the CLIP menu to save it to disc, load it from disc into unit memory, and delete it from the disc. Displaying the CLIP menu Hold down the SHIFT button and press the SUB CLIP button. In the thumbnail list screen and the clip list screen, you can display the CLIP menu by pressing the MENU button.
Note 3 The CLIP menu can handle up to 99 clip lists. Changing Displayed Items of Information on Sub Clips You can change information displayed in the lower portion of each thumbnail in the clip list window. Proceed as follows. 1 Display the CLIP menu. See “Displaying the CLIP menu” (page 71). 2 Use the M/MARK1 or m/MARK2 button to select “CLIP INFORMATION”, and then press the SET button. Chapter 4 Scene Selection A screen appears allowing you to select information items to display.
See “Displaying the CLIP menu” (page 71). 2 You can jump to the first clip or last clip by pressing the PREV or NEXT button with the SHIFT button held down. Use the M/MARK1 or m/MARK2 button to select “SORT CLIP LISTS BY...”, and then press the SET button. A screen like the one shown below appears. 3 Use the M/MARK1 or m/MARK2 button to select the type of sorting. Chapter 4 Scene Selection NAME: Sort in ascending order by clip list name. DATE: Sort by date of creation, with the newest clip list first.
Using the PDZ-1 Proxy Browsing Software When a computer with the PDZ-1 Proxy Browsing Software installed is connected to this unit, you can transfer the proxy AV data and metadata files recorded on a disc to the computer. On the computer side, PDZ-1 enables you to browse the proxy AV data, add or modify metadata (titles, comments, essence marks, etc.), or create a clip list. The modified metadata and the created clip list can then be written back to the disc loaded in this unit.

Using Option Boards Option Boards for Enhanced Functionality You can enhance the functionality of this unit by installing option boards in the option slots. You can install up to two option boards. The boards which may be installed in each slot differ, as follows. Slot 1: PDBK-101 Slot 2: One board from among the PDBK-102, PDBK103, and PDBK-104 Warning Improper installation of option boards can result in fire, electric shock, bodily injury, and damage to equipment in the vicinity.
Using the PDBK-102 MPEG-TS Input/Output Board Laptop computer With the PDBK-102 MPEG-TS Input/Output Board installed in option slot 2 of this unit, you can make i.LINK connections between this unit and video devices complying with the HDV 1080i 1) standard (called “HDV devices” below), and between this unit and computers to which HDV devices may be connected. These connections can be used for input and output of MPEG-2 TS streams.

Using UMID Data Metadata is additional information recorded on discs along with audio-visual data. It is used to bring greater efficiency to the flow of operations from material acquisition through editing, and to make it easier to find and reuse material. As one of application of metadata, the UMID has been internationally standardized. What is a UMID? A UMID (Unique Material Identifier) is a unique identifier for audio-visual material defined by the SMPTE 330M2003 standard.
• Distinguishing between original material and copied material. 00 is added to the Instance Number for original material. • Recording with UTC time. UTC (coordinated universal time) is used when recording the UMID. Use of a universal time system enables uniform management of source material recorded all over the world. • Calculation of date differences. Source material is recorded using modified Julian dates (MJD), which enables easy calculation of date differences between different source material items.
