 Using Play List
Overwrite Editing of Play Lists
When an event is registered, an event can be overwritten on video and audio, or on EXTRA track. Overwrite editing is performed 
by specifying the IN and OUT points of the event that will be overwritten (recorder side) and the event that will overwrite it (player 
side). Switching channels and audio level adjustments are available in an overwrite edit. 
◆NOTE:
This edit function uses the play list as a recorder. In the overwrite mode, press the INSERT button and locate video and audio for overwriting from
clips that match the play list format. Using selected audio and video as a source/player, register IN and OUT points on both the recorder and
source/player. 
Set the overwrite mode from the menu. 
1Press the MENU button and use the cursor buttons 
to choose [SETTING] – [INSERT MODE]. 
2Press the SET button, choose [OVERWRITE] and 
press the SET button. 
◆NOTE:
 The insert edit mode is the default setting. 
 Activating auto entry will automatically register the OUT point (R 
OUT) registered in the play list as the IN point (R IN) of the next 
event. 
1. Press the MENU button and use the cursor buttons to choose 
[SETTING] – [AUTO ENTRY]. 
2. Press the SET button, choose [ON] and press the SET button.  Use the overwrite edit mode with REPLACE TC enabled. 
If REPLACE TC is disabled, the time code value of the play list will 
take on the value of the time code of the overwriting event with the 
result that the registered time code will differ from time code after 
registration.
