For More Accurate Editing

Some VCRs make the transition from Record-Pause to
Record mode faster than others. Even if you begin editing
for the camcorder and the VCR at exactly the same time,
you may lose scenes you wanted, or find that you have
recorded scenes you did not want. For a cleanly edited
tape, confirm and adjust the timing of the camcorder
against your VCR.

DIAGNOSING VCR/CAMCORDER TIMING

1

Play back the tape in the camcorder, then point the
remote control at the camcorder’s remote sensor
and press R.A.EDIT ON/OFF.
Random Assemble Editing Menu appears.

2

Perform Random Assemble Editing on Program 1
only. In order to check VCR and camcorder timing,
select the beginning of a scene transition as your
Edit-In point.

3

Play back the dubbed scene.
•If any images from the scene prior to the

transition you chose for your Edit-In point were
recorded, that means your VCR moves too quickly
from Record-Pause to Record mode.

•If the scene you tried to dub starts in progress, the

VCR is slow to start recording.

have input is appropriate or not, and make
adjustments accordingly.

Depending on the recorder, there may be
situations where the timing difference
cannot be fully corrected.
