Edit searching
Edit search is very useful for editing out commercials if you are
recording a program while you are watching it. It is also useful as
a general editing feature. This; feature is sor_etimes called EE
(electronic-to-electronic) editing. This functicn works only when
you are in "record-pause" mode.
O During record pause, press the FF or REW button or use the
shuttle ring to locate the point where you want to resume
recording.
O When you find the point where you want to continue
recording (e.g. the last frame before the commercial), stop
operating the buttons or shuttle ring. After 3 seconds: the
VCR will return to record pause; you will[ see the live picture.
Press the PAUSE button (NOT the REC button) to resume
recording (when Lhe commercials are over).
Edit search will begi:a any time you are in record-pause and
operate the REW or FF buttons or the shuttle ring. Edit search
will end after 3 seconds of not using the buttons or shuttle ring.
Speed searching
You can use speed search to visually search _hrough the contents
of a videotape. To do this:
O While playing a tape, press FF or REW button on the remote
control. You will see the picture as it fast; forwards or rewinds.
It is normal to see some "noise bars."
If you press the FF or REW and hold it down for abou.t 1
second, the search speed will increase.
To resume normal playback, press FF or REW again quickly,
or press PLAY.
The fastest search speed that allows you to s,ee the picture is
about 30 times normal speed. Using fast forward or rewind
without the picture allows you to search up to 200 times normal
speed. The fastest way to move through the Cape is without a
picture. It is normal for the number of noise bars on the screen to
increase and roll from top to bottom as the visual search speed
increases.
