Playback
This section describes playback of video and audio on the 
unit.
Before starting playback, make the following settings and 
adjustments.

on page P1 of the function menu.
Selection of audio channels to monitor: Select with 
MONI CH and MONI SEL on page P1 of the function 
menu.
Volume adjustment of the monitor audio: Adjust with 
the LEVEL knob.
Remote/local setting: Set the remote control switch. If 
you set it to REMOTE, also set the setup menu item 
INTERFACE SELECT >REMOTE I/F (“REMOTE” 
and the connector used appear on the display).
Disc playback start position
Although this unit uses optical discs, it is designed to offer 
the most convenient features of tape playback by VTRs. 
One of these is the playback start position, which works in 
the same way as tape, as described below.
After playback stop
The unit stops at the position where the STOP button was 
pressed.
Press the PLAY button to resume playback at the stop 
position.
After recording
The unit stops at the position where recording ended.
To play back a clip, press the PREV button to move to the 
start frame of any clip or the previous REC START 
essence mark,
 1)
 or press the PREV button with the PLAY 
button held down to move to any position.
1) The setting of OPERATIONAL FUNCTION >FIND MODE determines 
whether the unit jumps to clips or to REC START essence marks.
When you play back clips recorded with the Clip Continuous Rec function 
(see page 50), you should set this menu item to “REC START EM”.
After disc insertion
The unit stops at the position of the disc when it was most 
recently ejected.
Press the PLAY button to resume playback at the most 
recent position.
The playback position is saved to the disc when the disc is 
ejected, which allows playback to start at that position 
whenever it is loaded into any XDCAM player.
