SUBSIDIARY SETTINGS (cont.)
* The default setting is bold in the table below.
8 B.E.S.T. — ON / OFF
You can set the B.E.S.T. (Biconditional Equalised Signal Tracking)
system to “ON” or “OFF.” (
੬ pg. 25)
NOTES:
● When watching a tape recorded with “B.E.S.T.” set to “ON,” it
is recommended that you leave B.E.S.T. on during playback as
well.
● When watching a rental tape or one recorded on another
video recorder, or when using this unit as the player for
editing, set B.E.S.T. to your preference.
● The B.E.S.T. system works for both SP and LP modes only after
a tape has been inserted and the Record mode is first initiated.
It does not work during recording.
● The B.E.S.T. system does not work while Automatic Satellite
Programme Recording is in progress. (
੬ pg. 32)
● In the case of timer recordings, the B.E.S.T. system works
before recording is initiated.
● Once the cassette is ejected, the B.E.S.T. data is cancelled. The
next time the cassette is used for recording, B.E.S.T. is re-
performed.
● Pressing the unit’s 7 button while “bESt” is displayed does not
start Instant Timer Recording. (
੬ pg. 24)
8 PICTURE CONTROL— AUTO (NORM) / EDIT / SOFT
This feature helps you to adjust the playback picture quality
according to your preference. Normally select “AUTO.”
AUTO (NORM): Normally select this. Picture quality is adjusted
automatically. When “B.E.S.T.” is “OFF,” “NORM” will appear
instead of “AUTO.”
EDIT: Minimizes picture degradation during editing (recording
and playback).
SOFT: Reduces image coarseness when viewing overplayed
tapes containing a lot of noise.
NOTES:
● When you select “EDIT” or “SOFT,” the selected mode will not
change until you select another mode.
● When you select “EDIT” to dub tapes, be sure to select
“AUTO” after you finish dubbing the tapes.
● When “B.E.S.T.” is “OFF,” “PICTURE CONTROL” switches
automatically from “AUTO” to “NORM.”
Ⅵ PAL/MESECAM — AUTO / PAL / MESECAM
Select the appropriate colour system for recording or playback.
AUTO: Usually set to this mode. The appropriate colour system
(PAL or MESECAM) will be selected depending on the
playback or recording signals.
If the “AUTO” mode does not work properly, select either of
the following manual modes.
PAL: To record PAL signals, or playback a PAL tape.
MESECAM: To record SECAM signals, or playback a SECAM or
MESECAM tape.
NOTES:
●
SECAM signals will always be recorded as MESECAM. Select
“AUTO” or “MESECAM” when recording SECAM signals.
●
When playing back a SECAM tape, select “AUTO” or
“MESECAM.” The playback picture will always be
monochrome.
