In [Record a Timecode Show](/grandma2/key_timecode_record/) the two different ways to record cues are described.

For details about editing a timecode show please read the [Edit a Timecode Show topic](/grandma2/key_timecode_editor/) - here is the description of the timecode editor and the "options for timecode shows".

How to run or playback the recorded timecode shows is described in the [Playing Back a Timecode Show topic](/grandma2/key_timecode_playing/). This topic also describes the timecode generator.
