Modifying Edit Points
Once you set edit points, you can modify or delete them as required.
When edit points have been set incorrectly, for example when an OUT
point is located before an IN point or when the duration of editing
segments on the player and recorder do not match, the DELETE button
flashes to alert you that a preview or edit cannot be carried out. In this
case, either modify the erroneous edit point, or first delete it and then enter
it correctly.
To turn a flashing DELETE button off
The DELETE button goes off when the erroneous edit point is correct.
