ITI  
The DSR-80 is equipped with a SDTI(QSDI) interface, while  
this interface is available with the DSR-60 as an option  
(DSBK-110 QSDI Output Board), which handles compressed  
video as well as Sub Code data and digital audio signals of the  
DVCAM recording format. The SDTI(QSDI) interface allows  
degradation-free transfer of both video and audio signals  
between the DSR VTRs and between the VTRs and a Sony  
EditStationTM in a nonlinear editing system.  
ITI: Insert and Track Information  
Playback Compatibility with Home-Use “DV”  
Format  
The DVCAM digital recording format for video professionals is  
an extension of the consumer DV format. Therefore, it maintains  
playback compatibility with consumer DV recordings and has  
the advantage that both standard and mini cassettes can be  
used in the same machine.  
ClipLink Operation  
The ClipLink system is a comprehensive data management  
system of the shooting information which is necessary for the total  
digital production process, ranging from acquisition to editing.  
Incorporated into Sony DVCAM cassettes is an IC memory chip  
which holds shot list information, called a ClipLink Log Data.  
When the cassette is loaded into the DSR-80 or the DSR-60, the  
ClipLink Log Data is uploaded into the Sony EditStation system for  
immediate viewing of the images on the GUI (Graphical User  
Interface) screen before actually being recorded onto the hard  
drive. Then only the selected clips on the GUI screen may be  
uploaded for time and space-saving efficiency of the hard drive.  
Thus, both the DSR-80 and the DSR-60 perform highly effective  
roles, when integrated into a nonlinear editing system with such as  
Sony’s EditStation system.  
By maintaining a wider track pitch, the DVCAM format ensures  
high reliability for the professional editor.  
The DVCAM Component Digital Recording  
Format  
The DVCAM format uses 8 bit component digital recording  
with a 5:1 compression ratio and sampling at the rate of 4:1:1 to  
provide superior picture quality and multi-generation capability.  
The DVCAM format employs an intra frame compression  
scheme which is ideal for editing applications. Based on DCT  
(Discrete Cosine Transform) techniques, each frame consists of  
10 tracks. Each track has ITI (Insert and Track Information),  
Audio, Video, and sub code areas. The ITI, which is a  
reference signal used for precise tracking, and Time Codes on  
the sub code area assure highly accurate editing performance.  
This technique provides much greater operational flexibility for  
complex multi-layering.  
Full Tape Dubbing with ClipLink Log Data  
The DSR-80 has a full tape dubbing function which allows  
you to make a dub of the recorded DVCAM tape information  
(video/audio/sub code) along with the ClipLink Log Data in the  
memory IC contained in the DVCAM cassette tape. The  
dubbing is accomplished by operating the menu button on the  
subcontrol panel via the SDTI(QSDI) interface and the RS-422A.  
High Quality Digital Audio  
The DSR-80 and the DSR-60 provide two selectable audio  
channel modes, two channels and four channels.  
In order to ensure superb audio performance with a wide  
dynamic range and an excellent signal-to-noise ratio, the PCM  
(Pulse Code Modulation) digital stereo recording system is  
used in both modes; 2CH of 16 bit, 48kHz sampling frequency  
and 4CH of 12 bit, 32kHz sampling frequency.  
Excellent Performance by the Professional  
DVCAM Tapes  
To gain maximum performance from high density digital  
recording, new Advanced Metal Evaporated cassette tapes  
have been developed for the DVCAM format. The result is  
superior recording quality which is achieved by increasing the  
RF video output by +4.5dB compared to that of Hi8® metal  
evaporated tape. Higher durability is also ensured for  
professional editing applications by enhancing protection with  
DLCTM (Diamond Like Carbon) coating. Each cassette has a

accurate editing is assured in both modes, thanks to the  
sophisticated servo control and built-in time code generator  
(the DSR-80 only) and reader.  
In the insert mode of the DSR-80, video, audio and time code  
can be inserted independently or in any combination. In the  
assemble mode, all of the prerecorded signals (video, audio  
and time code) are erased and replaced with new signals.

serial communication port to interface with Sony VTRs and  
editing controllers such as the PVE-500. In addition to VTR  
control functions, the interface also enables the transfer of  
ClipLink Log Data from the cassette memory in the DVCAM  
cassette to a Sony EditStation system.  
In JOG mode, frame accurate picture search is possible.  
These functions are available using the optional DSRM-10  
Remote Control Unit or with editing controllers equipped with
