Abstract: A complete system is described for cueing two or more crystal-sync cameras by using a small dedicated minicomputer to store information about the running and stopping of the cameras. On command, any number of cameras may be switched on and off by the cameramen, at random, throughout a continuous program. The recorded data can later be decoded and applied as visual information to the magnetic soundtrack for editorial handling. A feature of this technique is the fact that at every stage, the only equipment needed other than the dedicated minicomputer is standard film equipment.
