Abstract
In an editing system with an editing apparatus and a recording apparatus in mutually distant locations, a reproducing apparatus is at first connected with the editing apparatus. The reproducing apparatus outputs the reproduced image signal and the positional information, indicating the position of the image signal on the recording medium, to the editing apparatus. The editing apparatus generates program information, for controlling the reproducing operation of the reproducing apparatus, utilizing the image signal and the positional information, and outputs the program information to the reproducing apparatus. Then the reproducing apparatus is connected with the recording apparatus. Based on the program information outputted by the editing apparatus, the reproducing apparatus controls the reproducing operation of the reproducing apparatus itself and also controls the recording operation of the recording apparatus. Thus a highly complex editing operation can be achieved in a simple manner, without moving the recording apparatus and the editing apparatus even if they are positioned in distant locations.
