Limitations
- Does not support MPEG-1 format files.
- Does not support VOB format files.
- Cannot load files of less than 0.5 seconds or more than 12 hours.
- Cannot load files with the timetable reset in midstream.
- Maximum length of files created is 12 hours and mimum length is 0.5 seconds. Note that for DV stream amd QuickTime movie, maximum length of files is 2 hours.
- Handles PCM, MPEG-1 Audio Layer-2, and Dolby Digital Audio formats.
- Handles 48kHz of audio sampling rate for PCM and MPEG-1 Audio Layer-2 formats. Converts audio sampling rate of files other than 48kHz to 48kHz.
- Handles only 48kHz of audio sampling rate for 5.1-channel Dolby Digital format.
- MPEG-2 with audio sample size other than 16-bit is not supported.
- Handles video bitrate of 2Mbps to 9.8Mbps. Note that when audio format is PCM, maximum bitrate is 8Mbps.
- If video bitrate exceeds 8Mbps, you cannot select PCM as audio format.
- Does not support files with multiple audio streams.
- Handles up to 18 frames in a GOP for NTSC and 15 frames in a GOP for PAL.
- Handles system bitrate up to 10.08Mbps. Even if system bitrate is lower than 10.08Mbps, video bitrate higher than 9.8Mbps cannot be handled.
- Files can be combined in File Combination Mode if they are MPEG-2 format files and their video size, frame rate, aspect ratio, format of interlace and field order, audio format, audio sampling rate, and the number of audio channels are identical.
- Handles MPEG-2 format files as follows:
 [NTSC] : 704 x 480, 720 x 480, 352 x 480, 352 x 240
 [PAL] : 704 x 576, 720 x 576, 352 x 576, 352 x 288
- System bitrate is the total bitrate size comprising audio bitrate of MPEG-2 format files and video. Video bitrate varies according to audio bitrate.
  (e.g.) When the system bitrate of MPEG-2 format file is 8Mbps, the result is as follows:
  When the audio bitrate is 224kbps, video bitrate will be approximately 7.2Mbps.
  When the audio bitrate is 384kbps, video bitrate will be approximately 6.9Mbps.
- When previewing a file with 5.1-channnel Dolby Digital format, the number of audio channnels will be 2-channel.
- In the Trimming Mode, when saving a trimming range from a movie file with 5.1-channel Dolby Digital audio format, video may be misaligned with the trimming range that you set.
- When saving a movie file with 5.1-channnel Dolby Digital format as DV stream or QuickTimeMovie, the number of audio channels will be saved in 2-channel.
