While going back through the tape, can you back up and replay portions of the recording (and not have to go back to the beginning)?

Yes, you can. I use my recorder to assist with taking minutes of our HOA meetings and I'm constantly going back to sections to make sure I heard it correctly. While doing a playback, all you do is press the left arrow for a rewind. When you release the rewind button, the recording will automatically play from that point. Don't press stop and then press rewind. If you do, you'll go back to the beginning.

No. The file would be too large. The system over writes the old ones once full. This enables you to keep a record longer.

yes it does show on the recording when you play it back. But it can be off in the playback if you set it up in the off mode in the main menu

You can stop recording, yes. The thing is, there is no such thing as "pause" anymore when it comes to digital camcorders. I worry that you may be thinking of the old-days, like 8mm or video tape or VHS or even digital tapes like Mini-DV when things were actually recorded on a piece of tape so if you hit "pause" then re-recorded after any amount of time, the TAPE would start recording exactly where you left off. Now that everything is digital and video data is recorded onto SD cards, memory cards, computers, etc., when you "pause" the camcorder will create a new TRACK. Like a CD. It's like the difference between a cassette tape and a CD. The data exists in a different realm.

Yea, you can play back from the recorder right away. In fact playback from the recorder is the only way to use the handy index feature,which marks comments do special interest.

No. Program must be recorded first. However, the chasing playback function can be used to pause a program that is currently being recorded.

The answer to your question is: "NO". That is only one of the reasons I returned the recorder.

Yes, you can start continuous playback from tape 1, side a, then it will switch to tape 1 side b, then tape 2 side a and then tape 2 side b. This will continue as many as 5 times or until you stop the operation. Hope this helps. Al

Alex, This is not an issue relating to the disk, but rather the hardware/software you are using to record the show. Most recording devices allow for a disk to remain "open" after recording and "finalized" at some later point. That being the case, you should be able to do what you want to do for multiple recordings. For example, I am using a dual VCR/DVD machine to copy my personal VCR tapes, and my system allows me to put multiple tapes on one DVD before finalizing it.

If you are playing a video of course you can pause it and resume it. If you are talking to do that while you are recording a video I did not see that option.

I'm still getting used to mine, but, yes, you can start recording right away. Just hit the red rec/pause button. Every time you stop a recording (by hitting the black stop button), then hit the rec/pause, it starts a new recorded file. I'm still tinkering with mine and getting used to the fast-forward and rewind functions, but I like it so far. If you haven't downloaded the complete user manual, you should. It'll answer any questions you have about operating the recorder.

You can play a tape or you can record to a blank tape. Does that answer your question?

If it were me, I would erase all previous recordings and start anew at the time you where concerned about. Leaving the system running makes sure you didn't forget to turn it on, or something happen at a time where you least expected it.

Not to my knowledge. I've not tried to do this but the playback and record menus are not operable at the same time.

There are instructions in the manual to play back the recorded video on the device itself. It is pretty simple to do.

You can play it back through the speaker on the recording device. This equipment must be connected to a recorder to function.

Yes, you can set up the unit to play one tape, the second tape and repeat the process indefinitely.
