As a recording and reproducing apparatus, synchronized recording and reproducing apparatus which can be simultaneously performed a recording operation for recording a video signal and/or an audio signal inputted via a transmission channel on a recording medium and a reproducing operation for reproducing the video signal and/or the audio signal recorded on the recording medium in parallel is controlled in communication with a controller. In addition, an instruction concerning the recording operation and the reproducing operation is inputted via a graphic user interface. Consequently, the edition work can be carried out along with the recording operation, and the operation state can be visually grasped and the management of the system is made easy.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION I claim: 1.
An edition system comprising a main recording and reproducing apparatus and a computer, wherein: said main recording and reproducing apparatus comprising (a) record means for recording source video data which is successively supplied from external equipment at a real time in recording medium means; (b) playback means for reproducing the video data which has been recorded in said recording medium means in accordance with a playback command from said computer, while said record means records said source video data in said recording medium means in said real time; and (c) output means for outputting the video data same as the source video data recorded in said recording medium means to said computer as first video data, and outputting the video data reproduced by said playback means to said computer as second video data; and said computer comprising: (A) user interface means; (B) a video processor for receiving said first video data and said second video data, and generating first clip image data showing the IN point or the OUT point of said first video data from said first video data and also second clip image data showing the IN point or the OUT point of said second video data from said second video data; (C) display control means for displaying a graphic image concerning said user interface means, said first video data, said second video data, said first clip image data and said second clip image data to a predetermined area of a display means respectively; and (D) central control means for controlling said video processor and said display control means according to the operation of said user interface means.
2.
The edition system according to claim 1 wherein said central control means generates said playback command controlling the playback means of said main recording and reproducing apparatus according to the operation of said user interface means.
3.
The edition system according to claim 1 wherein said central control means controls said processor so that when said IN point or said OUT point is marked by said user interface means, the first clip image data is generated from the first frame of the first video data which is supplied to said computer
