There was a section in the menu system where you could route various signals between the display, tuner, the three SCARTs and the AV sockets on the front. So in theory at least you could have three VCRs plugged into the SCARTs and a camcorder on the AV. Then set it to route the Camcorder to VCR1, the tuner to VCR2 while you watched VCR3 on the display. Or any combination of input to output you liked.
It also had a double sided remote that slid into a sleeve. One side was the basic everyday controls and the other had more buttons than the NASA command centre
Never known another set with anything like those features.”
