This feature lets you quickly rewind or fast forward to the
start of recordings.
● Index Marks are made automatically at the start of all
recordings.They are not made where recording pauses.
The time gap between Index Marks should be greater than 1
minute for SP recording and 3 minutes for SLP recording.
This means recordings should be 1 (SP) or 3 (SLP) minutes
long. Otherwise, Index Search may not find the start of the
recording. In some cases, Index Marks at the beginning of a
videotape cannot be detected.
