Telerecording (known as kinescoping in the US) is the British name for a process pioneered during the 1940s for the storing of electronically shot television programmes on film. It was used for the preservation, re-broadcasting and sale of television programmes before the use of commercial broadcast-quality videotape became prevalent for these purposes.
