5-4 Using PDZ-1 Proxy Browsing Software

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.

If you set extended menu item 258 “LIVE LOGGING” to 
“on,” you can use PDZ-1 to do the following during 
recording of high-resolution data: view proxy AV data, 
perform cut editing of the data, and enter metadata.

The following are required to use PDZ-1.
• Computer:

- When using the live logging function:

PC with Intel Pentium 4 CPU, at least 2 GHz (installed 
memory: at least 512 MB)

- When not using the live logging function:

PC with Intel Pentium III CPU, at least 1 GHz 
(installed memory: at least 512 MB)

• Operating system: Microsoft Windows 2000 Service 

Pack 4 or higher, or Microsoft Windows XP 
Professional Service Pack 1 or higher

• Web browser: Internet Explorer 6.0 Service Pack 1 or 

higher

• DirectX: DirectX 8.1b or higher

Insert the supplied CD-ROM (PDZ-1 Proxy Browsing 
Software) in the CD-ROM drive of the computer and 
execute the Setup.exe file, then follow the installation 
instructions.

• Make sure that the hard disk drive on which the work 

folder to store the material transferred from this unit has 
adequate free space. The amount of proxy AV data 

transferred is about 1.4 GB per disc (when recording in 
the DVCAM format).

• To transfer files between the computer and this unit 

requires this unit’s IP address and other network-related 
settings to be made.
