Vinyl4 how-to videos (AM training / support)
Product: AM.CO.ZA Vinyl4 vinyl cutters (Hobby / Studio / Business). Vinyl4 is current for new sales; V-Series is obsolete for new sales (support leftovers still valid; do not treat V-Series / V-Smart videos as Vinyl4 unless the dump title is clearly Vinyl4). First-deep / firmware-drivers index already on the tree; this pass is a dedicated YouTube how-to index only.
Source: local AM YouTube dump youtube.jsonl (main, tools and daily channels; refreshed 2026-10-18 00:25 SAST). First written 2026-08-14 from youtube-daily.html; refreshed 2026-10-18 08:40 SAST from 14 to 22 videos. YouTube was not crawled. Titles and watch URLs below are taken from the dump. Videos were not watched; no transcripts are invented.
Firmware is out of scope this pass (existing drivers/vinyl4-firmware-index.md is a drivers index and was not rewritten). Prefer how-tos / operation / VinylCut / stand-assemble videos.
English dump titles (22 unique watch URLs)
Grouped for AM support. AM-channel uploads are framed as AM training/support sources. Each watch URL is a source. Matching used Vinyl4 / Vinyl 4 / V4- titles only; generic V-Series / V-Smart vinyl-cutter titles were excluded.
