Shot Mark Function
This unit can use shot marks recorded with Betacam
SX camcorders and Betacam SX VTRs such as the
DNW-A75/75P. Shot marks are indications at desired
points on a tape which enable faster cueing.
Types of shot mark
This unit supports the following three types of shot
marks. This chapter describes recording start marks
and post marks, treating them as varieties of shot
marks.
First, the shot mark functions of this unit are described
in simple terms.
Reading shot marks
This unit reads in shot marks written on a Betacam SX
camcorder or similar equipment and stores them in
memory. (To a maximum of 200)
Once this data is stored in this unit, it is preserved even
when the power is turned off.
Writing and erasing shot marks
This unit can erase any type of shot mark, but it can
only write post marks .
Shot mark list operations
On the monitor, you can display a list of the shot
marks read in by this unit, select required shot marks,
delete shot marks, and so on. You can also add a
memo mark (#) to a shot mark in the list.
During tape playback, you can add a list of virtual shot
marks. This is not written on the tape itself.

Cueing up to shot marks
By selecting a desired shot mark from the shot mark
list, you can cue up immediately to that position. By
means of a button operation, you can also cue up to the
shot marks adjacent to the current tape position. (Index
function)
Shot data display
When the tape includes shot data (camera, time, and
other information captured at the time of shooting),
you can read this in, and display the details on a
monitor. It is also possible to display the shot mark list
and shot data simultaneously.
Sorting shot marks by cassette
When the tape includes shot data, this unit recognizes
which cassette each shot mark comes from. You can
therefore sort the read-in shot marks by cassette, to
obtain a list in timecode order.
