WORMTUBE VCP/VCR Documentation

Version 2
---

The VCP/R ("Virtual Cassette Player/Recorder") is a tool for the capture and playback of video segments from the WORMTUBE Archive. The User may record a video segment on a blank (virtual) cassette, which is then added to the Library. The User may select up to two cassettes from the Library for simultaneous playback in VCPs A and B.

NOTE: The VCR function is not compatible with SCAN mode in the Archive. To prevent recording errors, SCAN mode is automatically disabled when cassette recording is started. SCAN mode may be re-enabled after recording is finished (see SCAN documentation for details).
