About COMMERCIAL ADVANCE
®
COMMERCIAL ADVANCE
®
is a feature in video
recorders that automatically skips or scans most com-
mercial messages during replay of a recorded televi-
sion broadcast.
Under controlled test conditions with major network
daytime and prime time broadcasts, almost all intra-
program commercials are eliminated. Actual results
may vary and will depend upon the quality of television
reception and the nature of the program recorded.
This feature records entire broadcasts including com-
mercials. When these recordings are played back, the
portions of the recording previously identified as con-
taining commercials can be automatically skipped or
scanned. Initiation of skipping or scanning can be per-
formed either automatically by this product or manually
by the viewer.
Notes:
•You can set CA PLAYBACK to OFF, SCAN or
SKIP.
• COMMERCIAL ADVANCE
®
feature operates only
when broadcasts received by this recorder are
recorded on its HDD.

®

casts are recorded from the external input.
