S-VHS ET
ON
OFF
You can record in SP mode on VHS cassettes with S-VHS picture
quality. You can play back a tape recorded using the S-VHS ET
function on most of S-VHS recorders and of VHS recorders equipped
with SQPB (S-VHS QUASI PLAYBACK) function. (Notice some
recorders are not compatible with the S-VHS ET function.)
When this function is set to “ON”, the S-VHS indicator lights up on
the front display panel.
NOTES:
You can activate the S-VHS ET function only before you start recording on a
VHS cassette.
Before recording, make sure that “B.E.S.T.” is set to “ON”. (
below)
You cannot activate the S-VHS ET function:
— while recording is in progress.
— while timer-recording or Instant Timer Recording (
pg. 29, 32, 34) is
in progress.
— while B.E.S.T. (
pg. 31) is in progress.
The S-VHS ET function does not work:
— with S-VHS cassettes.
— with recordings in LP/EP mode.
To keep the highest quality recording and playback pictures over a long
period of time, S-VHS recording on S-VHS cassettes is recommended.
Use of high grade tapes is recommended for S-VHS ET recordings. On
some tapes, picture quality will not improve even if the S-VHS ET function
is used. Check the recording quality before you start important recordings.
While playing back a tape recorded using the S-VHS ET function on some
recorders, noise may appear. (If playback picture becomes blurred or
interrupted, use a cleaning cassette.)
In the high-speed search, still, slow-motion or frame-by-frame playback
modes (
pg. 25, 26), noise may appear. If these modes are performed
frequently on a tape recorded using the S-VHS ET function, the tape may be
damaged and the picture may be deteriorated.

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

This feature helps you to adjust the playback picture quality
according to your preference. Normally select “AUTO”.
AUTO
: Provides the optimised picture benefits of the B.E.S.T.
Picture System.
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”.
