Exiting the one-clip recording mode

Cueing to the start of the combined section of a clip
A text memo can be automatically attached to the start of the recording, the start of a section can be cued for playback, and the thumbnail of the location
can be checked before each recording.
To automatically attach a text memo at the start of recording, set the [START TEXT MEMO] item on the [RECORDING SETUP] screen to [ON] by menu
operations.
To check and play back the location of the attached text memo, select [THUMBNAIL]
→
[TEXT MEMO CLIPS] from the thumbnail menu and move the
cursor over the desired clip.
For details, refer to “Playing back from the text memo position” (page 108).

Proxy recording (extra-cost option) in the one-clip recording mode
Proxy recording is possible even in the one-clip recording mode.
Since proxy data is also grouped together in the same way as a combined clip, it can be handled as a single clip in a P2 viewer, for example. However,
note the following when recording the proxy data to SD memory cards.
f
When the SD memory card is removed and replaced while combining of clips is in progress, proxy recording is not performed to the SD memory card
until combining of subsequent clips ends. Check available space and the number of the files (maximum 1000 clips) before using the card. To continue
proxy recording after the SD memory card has been replaced midway, hold down the <STOP> button for approximately two seconds to end combining
of clips and start recording as a new clip.
f
The proxy data on the SD memory card to which recording was stopped midway will not match the data of the clip recorded on the P2 card and will be
incomplete.
Notes on the one-clip recording mode
f
The one-clip recording mode is disabled when interval recording, one-shot recording, loop recording, and variable frame rate recording functions are
selected.
