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.
