Edit list files are text files with the ".edl" filename extension. Composition is as follows:

Entry: Number Operation Type Parameter 1 Parameter 2 Parameter 3
The number of parameters differs depending on the type of operation involved. Numbers are consecutive
numerals beginning from 001.
Use a single-byte space (0x20) or tab (0x09) between [PIONEER-DVDRec-EDL] and [002]. Alternately, a carriage
return character (0x0A, 0x0D0A, 0x0D) may also be used.
The message ENCODING=XXX indicates the character encoding, and may be omitted.
The "XXX" represented here supports utf8, eucJP, Shift-JIS, and JIS7. If the command is omitted, utf8 will be
used as default encoding.
