reaches 0:00:00 the recording stops automatically, pausing the VCR in the 
record mode. 
Note: If the tape counter reads "0:00:00M" you cannot start recording. 
Simple Programmable Edit

scenes you want to copy from a pre-recorded tape. Use the edit remote control 
(provided) to easily copy scenes from a recorded tape in the camcorder 
(playback machine) onto a blank tape in a table-top VCR which handles infrared 
remote signals (recording machine).
