  • Multicompartment video tape and player therefor
    Patent number: 5357383
    Abstract: A VCR utilizes two rotary heads so as to allow a user to playback a portion of the endless loop magnetic tape while recording onto another portion of the tape. The cassette cartridge is compartmentalized so as to separate that portion of the tape which has just passed by the record head from that portion of the tape which has just passed across the playback head. A middle compartment is used to store any tape rewound from the compartment used to store that tape which has just been played back so as to allow a user to repeat the playback of any portion of the tape inside that compartment.
