Abstract
Apparatus for playing back from recording media (such as magnetic tape) recorded information which includes both preselected segments and unpreselected segments, such as edited video scenes (burst and still) and unedited video scenes. The apparatus includes a memory for storing start and end addresses (which may be the same) of preselected segments recorded on the media, and a device for designating an unpreselected segment for playback such as on a display monitor. The apparatus includes control logic (1) for determining from the stored start and end addresses of preselected segments the start and end addresses of a designated unpreselected segment, and (2) for causing playback of the designated segment.
