Displaying the duration between the edit points
You can display the duration between two edit points in the time data display area in the following three cases: · When two edit points are set: the duration of the segment between the two points · When only one edit point is set: the duration of the segment between the point that is set and the current tape position. · When no edit point is set: the duration of the previous edit segment

Press the R/P function button on the P5 EDIT page of the function menu to select a VTR (PLAYER or RECORDER) for checking the duration. Press the IN and OUT function buttons simultaneously. The duration appears in the time data display area while the buttons are held pressed.
Automatic setting for edit points Editing requires four edit points: the IN and OUT points on both the recorder and player. However, once any three of these points are defined, the last point is set automatically. For example, if you set the recorder IN and OUT points and the player IN point, the player OUT point is set automatically.
Note
5-2-2 Modifying and Deleting Edit Points
If the edit points are not set correctly, for example if an OUT point is before a corresponding IN point, the DELETE indicator in the menu display area flashes, and it is not possible to perform a preview or editing operation. In this case, either modify the erroneous edit point, or first delete it and then enter it correctly.
In the following cases, the DELETE indicator begins to flash, and you cannot perform automatic editing. · The OUT point is before the IN point. · All four of the recorder IN and OUT points and the player IN and OUT points have been set. Use the DELETE function button to delete a redundant edit point, or set the edit points correctly.
