naming structure for use of clips on a computer.
On the FS-2/2E, files are identified by TRACK and
VOLUME (disk drive) number on the LCD. For
instance, a file on the FS-2/2E LCD identified as 1-
043 is clip number 43 on Volume (disk) 1.
On a computer, files are identified by their base file
name made up of DATE and TIME. For instance, a
clip named 20050615-210943-01.mov is a clip that
began recording at 9:09:43PM on June 15th. 2005.
NOTE: DATE/TIME is used when creating file
names only. The FS-2/2E does not record this
information into the stream. The FS-2/2E records
the date and time which is in the DV stream sent
from the input source.
