Sony DSR-25 Mode D'emploi page 41

If you use a cassette with cassette memory, the index
will also be marked in the cassette memory.
Notes
• You cannot mark a new index while the "INDEX
MARK" indicator is being displayed.
• If you record on a portion of the tape where an index
has been marked, the index will be erased. You
cannot delete just an index while keeping the image
or sound.
• You cannot mark an index during playback,
duplicating or audio dubbing operations. The INDEX
button and the INDEX WRITE button are disabled in
these operations.
• The cassette memory space available limits the
number of indexes that you can mark. When you use
a previously recorded tape for repeated recordings,
make more memory space available by erasing
unwanted items using ITEM ERASE or ERASE ALL
on the CM SET menu before you start recording.
To use an index during playback
You will need the Remote Commander or the Remote
Control Unit (DSRM-20, not supplied).
For details on the playback functions using the Remote
Commander, see "Searching using the search function" in
"Playback Functions" on page 33 (GB).
