Abstract
A video magnetic recording and playback device has a manual input device for manually inputting data, a memory timer for storing the manually input data as preset data, and an operation controller responsive to the manually input data for controlling a video signal recording and playback unit and a tape travel controller and also responsive to the preset data for controlling the operation of the video signal recording and playback unit and the tape travel controller for preset recording. A state detector detects whether the device is in a playback state or in a stop state. By the action of a switch in accordance with the detected state, when the device is in the playback state, the manually input data is directed to the operation controller and is used for controlling the video signal recording and playback unit and the travel speed controller. When the device is in the stop state, manually input data is directed to the memory timer and stored in the memory timer as the preset data.
