●
When dubbing is complete, the camcorder

Record-Pause mode.
●
If you do not register an Edit-Out point, the
tape will be dubbed all the way to the end
automatically.

mode and automatic editing will stop.

Assemble Editing.
●
When the editing cable is connected to the remote
control’s PAUSE IN connector during dubbing,
make sure the remote control is pointed at the
VCR’s sensor, and the path between the two is
unobstructed.
●
Random Assemble Editing may not function
properly when using a tape including several
duplicated time codes. (
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.
