7-3 File Data Storage

As described previously, creating a title will require the user to enter start
and end points as times. It is assumed that the programme material is
available on a machine (tape recorder, hard disc etc.) which is connected in
such a way as to be able to locate to cue points, and to execute normal
functions such as play or roll-back under the control of the automation
system. It is also assumed that the machine will inform the automation
system of its current position (e.g. by timecode) while it is playing. The
machine may, in fact, be multiple tape recorders locked by synchronisers,
or a single hard disc machine. This makes no difference to the operation
of the console automation system.
