Edit searching
Edit search is very useful for editing out co:mmercials if you are
recording a program while you are watching it. It is also useful as
a general editing feature. This feature is sometimes called EE
(electronic-to electronic) editing. This function works only when
you are in "record-pause" mode.
O During record pause, press the FF or REW buttons or use the
shuttle ring to locate the point where you want to resume
recording.
O

When you find the point where you want to continue record-
ing (e.g. the last frame before the commercial), the VCR will
return to record pause; you will see the live picture.
Press the PAUSE button (NOT the REC button) to resume
recording (when the commercials are over).
Edit search will begin any time you are in record-pause and
operate the REW, FF button or the shuttle ring. Edit search will
end after 3 seconds of not using the buttons o_"shuttle ring.
Speed searching
You can use speed search to visually search through the contents
of a videotape. To do this:
O While playing a tape, press FF or REW button on the remote
control. You will see the picture as it fast :_orwards or rewinds.
It is normal to see some "noise bars".
O
O
If you press the FF or REW button and ihold it down for about
1 second, the search speed will increase.
To resume normal playback, press FF or REW again quickly,
or press PLAY (or PLAY/STOP).
The fastest search speed that allows you to see the picture is
about 30 times normal speed. It is normal for the number of noise
bars on the screen to increase and roll from top to bottom as the
visual search speed increases. Using speed search for long
stretches of tape may cause the video heads tc become dirty
faster. The fastest way to mow_ through thc_ tape is without a
picture, which allows you to search up to 25,3 times normal speed.
To do this, press STOP, then FF or REW.
