Overview Chapter 1

1-1Features

The PDW-R1 is a convenient, compact, and lightweight optical disc recorder. It allows you to record to optical discs, play back optical discs, and record audio and video data files transferred over the S400 (i.LINK 1)) connector and (network) connector. It is ideal for field applications and for desktop viewing by journalists, producers, and other production staff.

1) i.LINK is a trademark of Sony Corporation.

The features of the PDW-R1 include the following.

MPEG IMX/DVCAM recording

The PDW-R1 offers the capability to record and play back both MPEG IMX 1) and DVCAM 1) streams. Users have the flexibility to select from these formats according to their picture-quality needs, or to match their editingformat requirements.

1) MPEG IMX and DVCAM are trademarks of Sony Corporation.

Proxy AV data

Proxy AV data is a low-resolution, MPEG-4 based version of a full-resolution MPEG IMX/DVCAM stream (a video bandwidth of 1.5 Mbps and an audio bandwidth of 64 kbps per channel). Whenever a recording is made, the unit automatically generates proxy AV data from the fullresolution data and records it on the Professional Disc. Proxy AV data is much smaller in size than the fullresolution IMX or DVCAM data. It can be transferred quickly over computer networks, easily edited in the field with laptop computers, and readily used in a wide variety of applications, such as content management on smallscale servers.

Thumbnail search operation

Simply press the THUMBNAIL button and the PDW-R1 instantly displays thumbnails on the video panel or a connected monitor. You can easily cue up the desired scene by guiding the cursor to the corresponding thumbnail and confirming your selection with the SET button.

Scene selection

You can create and play back clip lists of selected clips from the disc, arranged in any order.

One disc can store up to 99 clip lists.

Clip lists make it simple to perform offline editing in the field for later use with full-scale nonlinear editing systems (XPRI 1), etc.).

1) XPRI is a trademark of Sony Corporation.

Quick picture search by jog and shuttle dials

The PDW-R1 has jog and shuttle dials as a conventional VTR to search picture in a clip. The jog dial is for frame- by-frame search at –1 to +1 times normal speed and the shuttle dial is for high-speed search at ±20 times normal speed.

IT-friendly system

In the PDW-R1, clips are recorded as video and audio data files 1). This file-based recording system also allows material to be viewed directly on a computer linked to the unit via an i.LINK (file access mode, called FAM below) connection—in the same way that a computer reads data files on an external drive. The interfaces include the

S400 (i.LINK) connector, supporting AV/C (Audio/ Video Control) and i.LINK (FAM) protocols, and (network) connector. The (network) connector supports MXF (Material eXchange Format) file transfer capability to exchange contents with other equipment supporting MXF.

1-1 Features	9

Overview 1 Chapter

1)A clip is created every time recording is stopped.

•Video and audio data are always recorded in empty sections of the disc. Recording begins instantly, even after playback, without overwriting existing video on the disc.

•Recording is done in clip units, which makes it simple to delete a clip immediately after shooting if it is judged to be unneeded.

•During playback, thumbnail lists make it easy to identify clips. The random access nature of the media allows the NEXT and PREV buttons to jump instantly to clip start frames, making it easy to check the video and audio in the clips.

•i.LINK (FAM) or network connections make it possible to transfer clip files at high speed between this unit and remote computers.

Flexible metadata recording

XDCAM 1) can record various types of metadata together with video and audio data, such as the date and time of shooting, the cameraman, the recording method, and comments about the material. This metadata can be used in applications such as the following.

•The supplied PDZ-1 Proxy Browsing Software can be used to add titles, comments, and other text data to discs and clips.

•Computer-readable text files can be recorded on the Professional Disc, to allow systematic content management.

•The ability to search metadata for the required audio and video scenes brings greater efficiency to various stages of the video production process (editing, archiving, etc.).

1) XDCAM is a trademark of Sony Corporation.

•The output from external DV devices (VTRs, nonlinear editors, etc.) can be input to this unit and recorded on Professional Discs.

Computer access to files (file access mode)

Use of application software which supports the XDCAM series 1) enables random access to video, audio, and metadata files on Professional Discs, with the ability to display file lists and perform file-based reads and overwrites.

Files can be transferred at high speed, and thumbnail lists of disc contents can be viewed on computer screens.

1)Such software includes the supplied PDZ-1 Proxy Browsing Software and the XPRI series.

Equipped with network connector

This network connector of unit can be connected to computers and networks to enable high-speed file transfers and display of lists of the video, audio, and metadata files stored on Professional Discs. Workflows can be improved by the ability to use FTP commands to transfer files to remote locations.

Color LCD built-in

With the built-in 3.5-inch type color LCD screen, you can display contents on the disc without an external monitor.

Supports a variety of interfaces

The PDW-R1 supports a variety of interfaces and is suitable for use with various nonlinear editing systems.

Analog interfaces

Video: The unit can input and output a composite analog video signal.

Audio: The unit has two audio channels. When in 4- channel mode, you can input two channels of audio either as channels 1 and 2 or as channels 3 and 4. The two audio channels can be output also either as channels 1 and 2 or as channels 3 and 4.

Digital interfaces

SDI (Serial Digital Interface)/AES/EBU: This allows the unit to input and output D1 (component) format digital video and audio signals and also AES/EBUformat digital audio signals.

Equipped with i.LINK connector

The i.LINK connector of this unit supports the following two functions.

Input and output of DV streams (AV/C mode)

•DV streams can be output from this unit and recorded on standard DV equipment.

•During MPEG IMX playback, the playback signals can be converted and output as DV streams, allowing you to connect DV-compatible nonlinear editors.

Compact size, lightweight and batterypowered operation

The PDW-R1 is designed small and light enough to carry out to the field and it is operable with battery to work speedily in the field.

Supporting SNMP for service and maintenance

The PDW-R1 is compatible with Sony remote maintenance and monitoring software—an SNMPcompliant application that can monitor and log the hardware’s status in real time via a TCP/IP network. If a malfunction is detected, this system can immediately identify the problem, allowing you to take corrective action.

connector of DV device or PC
	DC OUT 12V
i.LINK cable
(not supplied)	S400		VIDEO
		IN	OUT1	OUT2(SUPER

When the unit is shipped from the factory, the audio output signal is set to 16 bit/48 kHz/2ch mode. You can change the audio mode and output channel settings with extended

menu item 831 “DV OUT AUDIO MODE” and extended menu item 828 “SDI/DV AUDIO OUTPUT SELECT.”

See 7-3-2 “Extended Menu Operations” (page 108) for more information about how to make these settings.

Notes

•If video or audio signals from an external device

connected with the S400 (i.LINK) connector are not output, disconnect the i.LINK cable and connect it again, pushing it straight in.

•When the PDW-R1 is connected to a device with a 6-pin i.LINK connector by an i.LINK cable, before unplugging the i.LINK cable, first power off the device and disconnect the power plug from the outlet. If the i.LINK cable is unplugged with the device power plug still connected, a current from an excessive voltage (8 to 40 V) output from the i.LINK connector of the device flows into the PDW-R1. This may cause a failure of the PDW-R1.

•When connecting the PDW-R1 to a device with a 6-pin i.LINK connector, connect to the 6-pin i.LINK connector of the other device first.

•Except in playback mode (jog and shuttle modes, etc.), if you are monitoring the audio signal output from this connector on another device, the audio signal may sound differently from the audio signal played back on the PDW-R1.
