Assembly Editing
Editing your 8mm tapes onto VHS tapes is a breeze with the
8mm/VHS Dual-Deck VCR’s Automatic Assembly Editing
System. Just use the Automatic Editing keys on the remote
control or front panel to mark the beginning and end of up
to eight individual scenes on your 8mm tape. Think of
marking the beginning and end of scenes as putting
“parentheses” around the scene. Use the Tape Counter with
Frame accuracy to fine-tune your begin and end marks.
Then, press a button and let the Dual-Deck VCR do all the
work of assembling the scenes and copying them to your
VHS tape.
Before you begin your Automatic Editing session, we
recommend that you set AUTO PLAY in the AUTO
FEATURES MENU to OFF. This prevents the 8mm tape
from automatically playing when you insert it, giving you
more control over the tape.
