Hi, just lurking around and saw your question. I was a beta site for the PC-VCR a few years ago, and we found that while it was not FRAME-ACCURATE, we were able to record a series of frames using a basic routine. The problem is not that the recorder is not accurate, but that the flying erase head is not clean. There is a noise pulse on the first field of each edit. This has been confirmed by the factory, and they did not see it as a significant problem. We got our money back, and I believe that NEC has dropped the product. Sorry. Jim Pope Denver
