The time and operation details appear on the screen for about 5 seconds.
Notes:
≥These displays do not appear when paused or during slow play.
≥The on-screen display may be distorted depending on the playback tape or the input signal.
To change the audio, press [AUDIO].
The audio changes as follows:
When playing a tape: Stereo>L>R>Normal audio track>Stereo
While watching the TV: Stereo>L>R>Normal>Stereo
≥You cannot change the audio while you use “dc” channel (l 42).
¬ To play back tapes recorded Stereo or Bilingual programmes (NV-VP32GL only)
Select the desired sound mode with [AUDIO] during playback. Recording on the unit is automatically made in the stereo or bilingual
mode. This prevents errors in the selection of the dubbed or the original language.
¬ The NICAM Broadcast System (NV-VP32GN only)
NV-VP32GN is equipped with the NICAM sound system. NICAM is a 2-channel sound broadcast system to provide either a high quality stereo
sound track or 2 independent MONO sound tracks, M1 and M2. NICAM programmes are always accompanied by standard sound broadcasts
and you can select the desired sound with [AUDIO] during playback.
≥The NICAM digital stereo sound can only be recorded on the Hi-Fi audio track.
≥To record the regular sound (ordinary normal sound) on the FM audio tracks when a NICAM programme is received, set “MONAURAL” to
“ON” (OPTION l 24).
IMPORTANT
When NV-VP32GN is switched on, the tuner will be automatically switched to a NICAM broadcast, if NICAM is being transmitted.
At this time the NICAM signal is transmitted on stereo channels only, since the M1 and M2 formats are not yet available. Even if the sound
track is MONO, the stereo indicator will appear.
