S-VHS ET
This facility allows recording with S-VHS picture quality on
VHS cassettes. You can play back those cassettes recorded in
S-VHS ET on a recorder equipped with S-VHS ET.
NOTES:
To obtain the highest quality recording and playback
pictures over a longer period on this model, S-VHS
recording on S-VHS tape is recommended.
You can play back S-VHS ET recordings not only on this
recorder but also on another VHS recorder equipped with
S-VHS ET.
* It is recommended to specifically label S-VHS ET
recordings so you can easily distinguish them from regular
VHS recordings.
S-VHS ET recordings can also be played back on an S-VHS
recorder or a VHS recorder equipped with SQPB (S-VHS
QUASI PLAYBACK) function. However, there may be cases
where S-VHS ET playback is not possible on a particular
recorder.
Frequent still, frame-by-frame and slow-motion playback
may damage the tape and cause picture degradation.
With some tapes, better picture quality may not be
obtained even with S-VHS ET recording. It is recom-
mended that you do test record beforehand to make sure
whether better results can be obtained.
High Grade tapes are recommended for superior results.
Make sure that "B.E.S.T." is set to "ON" (
pg. 24).
During S-VHS ET playback, noise may appear depending
on tape quality.
Noise may appear during search, still, frame-by-frame and
slow-motion playback.
If the playback picture becomes blurred or interrupted, use
a cleaning cassette.
