Abstract
A system is described for selecting and replaying desired tape segments of a recorded tape, a video tape for example, in any predetermined sequence. The system accepts an operator's designation of which segments of the tape are desired for replay and in which sequence those segments are to be replayed, irrespective of the location of the selected segments on the tape. An electronic controller, responsive to the operator's designations, causes the playback machine to replay each selected tape segment in the proper sequence.
