ClipMgtDevice HDCAM
To archive to a Sony HDCAM VTR, you must use the ClipMgtDevice HDCAM
keyword and not the ClipMgtDevice Vtr keyword. The ClipMgtDevice
HDCAM keyword adjusts the metadata encoding mechanism to account for the
compression method used by the HDCAM VTR.
The ClipMgtDevice HDCAM keyword contains an optional start timecode
parameter:
■ If you specify a default start timecode for HDCAM VTR archiving, the
specified timecode is always used. You cannot override the default start
timecode using the Archive menu.
■ If you want to determine through the application the start timecode for
archives created with an HDCAM VTR, do not add the start timecode
parameter.
The ClipMgtDevice HDCAM keyword uses the following syntax
ClipMgtDevice HDCAM[, <timecode>]
where <timecode> is an optional start timecode for the archive.

To use a tape device for archiving, you must define the filename, the block
size, and the name for the device you are using.
