Abstract: During its 1965 National Football League coverage, CBS made extensive use of a stop-action effect. Used during recorded replays of sports action, the visual effect of a “frozen” still-frame may be created at will, held for any desired interval, then followed by a resumption of the continuous action. The effect is achieved by a video disc recorder (made by MVR Corp.) which incorporates a channel capable of 20 seconds of continuous recording, combined with an additional single-frame storage channel. The unit incorporates appropriate video switching logic to provide smooth transitions between the modes of operation and to insure transmission of a standard composite video and synchronizing signal.
