The recording mode will be changed automatically depending on the
broadcasting signal.
While the VCR is recording a digital broadcast, please do not change the
channel on the integrated HDTV or the IEEE 1394-equipped HDTV receiver.
If you pause the VCR for more than five minutes, recording will stop
automatically to protect the tape.
If you pause a recording, a mosaic noise, a still or a black picture may
appear when playing where the recording is resumed.
If you attempt to record on a tape that has had its erasure prevention tab
removed, the VCR will eject it. To record over such a tape, simply place a
piece of vinyl tape over the opening.
