Locating beginning of timer recordings
— Instant Review
After ensuring that the VCR is turned off and that the timer mode is
disengaged, press REVIEW.
●
The VCR turns on, and rewinds to the index code indicating the
beginning of the last timer-recorded program, then begins
playback automatically.
●
You can access a program of 2 to 9 index codes away from the
current position on the tape. If, for example, you have
5 programs recorded and you want to watch the third one, press
REVIEW three times.
●
The Instant Review function will also operate if the VCR is
turned on.
Skipping unwanted portions
— Skip Search
Press SKIP SEARCH on the Remote once to 4 times during
playback. Each press initiates a 30-second period of high speed
playback (up to 2 minutes). When the specified portion of the tape
is skipped, normal playback resumes automatically. To return to
normal playback during Skip Search, press PLAY (
4
).
Adjusting picture condition
— Digital TBC/NR
The Digital TBC/NR (Time Base Corrector/Noise Reduction)
function removes jitter from fluctuating video signals to deliver a
stable picture even with old tapes and rental tapes. The Digital R3
function (
੬
pg. 20) which cuts noise and reproduces clear
pictures is also linked to this function.
We recommend that you use the Digital TBC/NR function
when —
— playing back a tape recorded on a camcorder.
— playing back a tape repeatedly used.
— using this VCR as the playback VCR for editing.
Press DIGITAL TBC/NR on the VCR so that the DIGITAL TBC/NR
lamp lights up.
Each time you press the button, this function turns on and off.
NOTES:
●
If you play back a tape on which certain types of signals (using a
PC or some character generators) have been recorded with
Digital TBC/NR activated, the playback picture may be
distorted. In this case, deactivate Digital TBC/NR.
●
Digital TBC/NR and Video Stabilizer (
੬
pg. 20) cannot be used
at the same time. If you activate Digital TBC/NR when “VIDEO
STABILIZER” is set to “ON”, “VIDEO STABILIZER” will be
automatically set to “OFF”. Make sure Digital TBC/NR is
deactivated when you want to use Video Stabilizer.
It may be unlawful to record or play back copyrighted material
without the consent of the copyright owner.
