post was in error, I did my own fact check and found out from Martin Salter(ex-Ampex
super engineer/marketer, who was based in our Reading, England operation) and
he cleared up my reference.<br>
<br>
The ACR-25's which were covered up and not used for more than a year due to
union disputes, were at "Southern Television", the Independent
License holder for the Southern part of England.<br>
<br>
Steve Turner did create a operating mode with an ACR-25 using the mode where it
would record a long event across as many cassettes as required. He would put in
cue points "on the fly" for each goal and penalty and then put them
all together as a recap as soon as the game was over.<br>
He later used this same method to produce a very good daily wrap up of a major
multiple sport event in the far east.<br>
This was a very early NLE on the fly application.<br>

This sounds as if it might be mistaken, as the BBC never owned an<br>
ACR-25. A comprehensive list of real VT machines on strength is available
