Clip Name Format

Sets settings related to clip naming and deletion.

When [Auto Naming] is set to [Cam ID + Reel#], the first four characters of clip names are determined for each recording media. When new recording media is inserted, or when the last clip on the recording media does not match the [Camera ID] or [Reel Number] settings, the clip name blinks to notify you.

When [Auto Naming] is set to [Title], you can use an arbitrary character string as the first part of clip names.
