8 B.E.S.T.ON / OFF
You can set the B.E.S.T. (Biconditional Equalised Signal Tracking)
system to ON or OFF. (
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. (

In the case of timer recordings, the B.E.S.T. system works
before recording is initiated.

performed.
Pressing the units 7 button while bESt is displayed does not
start Instant Timer Recording. (
