While Editing
(S-VHS/VHS Mode
Only)
Turn on the TV and select the AV mode.
Advantages Of S-VHS
Video Recorders
You can edit from VHS to S-VHS, S-VHS to VHS, or, from
S-VHS to S-VHS.
● From VHS to S-VHS: Record VHS playback signals in the
S-VHS mode. Although the picture quality is inherently
limited by that of the original, the edited tape has better
picture quality than those made by VHS-to-VHS editing.
● From S-VHS to VHS: Because the picture quality of the
source material is very high, the edited tape has better
picture quality than those made by VHS-to-VHS editing.
● From S-VHS to S-VHS: All signals will be transferred with
minimum degradation.
Picture Control
This feature helps you to adjust the playback picture quality
according to your preference. *The default setting is "AUTO."
