Glitches

“Glitches” may occur during a manual assembly edit,
usually at the end of a scene that is being recorded over old
material. This is because the VCR’s full erase head (which
erases the video, audio, and control tracks) is always a few
seconds after the recording heads. You may see a vibrating
rainbow of color in the middle of the picture for a few
seconds. Sound can be unstable for a moment. It can help to
avoid glitches by recording over blank tape only, and by
carefully positioning the VHS tape at the end of every scene
before you begin recording a new scene.

SPEED in the VHS MENU is set
to the same speed that the rest
of the VHS tape was recorded
at. (Changing speeds in the
middle of a tape causes a
glitch. If you’re uncertain about
the recording speed, look on
the On Screen Display.)
