Match frame processing function

When using two VTRs for editing, a total of four edit points—namely, the player’s IN and OUT points and the recorder’s IN and OUT points—need to be entered. However, since the last edit point is calculated automatically, only three of these edit points must be entered.

Negative duration function

This function is used by combining setup menu No. 301 (IN/OUT DEL) and No. 302 (NEGA FLASH) described on page 52.
