For More Accurate Editing
Some VCRs make the transition from Record/Standby to Record mode faster than others. Even if you begin editing for the camcorder and the VCR at exactly the same time, you may lose scenes you wanted, or find that you’ve recorded scenes you didn’t want. For a cleanly edited tape, confirm and adjust the timing of the camcorder against your VCR.
