          Appeal No. 96-1854                                                          
          Application No. 08/067,992                                                  


          combined teachings would still lack the monitoring and editing              
          according to a SMPTE timing signal to produce a modified video              
          signal as required by claims 6 and 12 (Brief, pages 16 through              
          19).  The obviousness rejection of claims 6, 7 and 10 through 12            
          is, therefore, reversed.                                                    
               The obviousness rejection of claims 8 and 9 is reversed                
          because the teachings of Beausoleil do not cure the noted                   
          shortcomings in the combined teachings of Ardis and Slade.                  
                                      DECISION                                        
               The decision of the examiner rejecting claims 1 through 12             
          under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is reversed.                                          
          REVERSED
