Recording Features
Record One Programme While
Watching Another
Once recording is in progress, all you need to do is to set
the channel controls on the TV for the station you wish to
view.
The programme selected with the TV’s channel controls
appears on the TV screen, while the one selected with the
recorder’s PR buttons is recorded on the tape.
If a decoder is connected to the recorder (
pg. 72), you can
select a scrambled channel as well with the TV channel
controls.

of stereo and bilingual broadcasts possible.
When the channel is changed, the type of broadcast being
received will be displayed on the TV screen for a few seconds.
NOTE:
“O.S.D.” must be set to “ON” or the on-screen displays will not
appear (

Stereo programmes are automatically recorded in stereo.
Bilingual programmes are automatically recorded in bilingual.
To Record NICAM Bilingual Programmes

programme (

NOTES:
If the quality of stereo sound being received is poor, the
broadcast will be received in monaural with better quality.
Before playing back a programme recorded in stereo, or a
bilingual programme, refer to “Soundtrack Selection” on
