Your Dual-Deck VCR gives you a whole new range of editing capabilities. You can
duplicate a tape, removing scenes from the original that you don't want to record
on your copy.
You may find it easier to edit when the
On-Screen Display (OSD)
is on your TV
screen. Press the
DSP
button to view the OSD on your TV. The OSD shows you
the status and Tape Counter of both decks at all times. The OSD does not record
on to your videotape.
Make sure the
Auto Play
feature in the Video Menu is set to OFF. This simplifies
editing by preventing the tapes from playing each time they are inserted.
