To do decent editing (that is, no glitches) there is no substitute
for a pair of genlocked editing VCR's.  Consumer equipment generally
does not have this sort of functionality.  The machines have to be
tied to the same sync source, have the proper kind of erase heads,
and in general are more complex than non-editing machines.

While some of the newer consumer machines (especially the new Sony
with an effects "jog" wheel) let you get closer to a good edit,
you really need editing equipment to do it right.  Sorry about that.
