MOVIE ADVANCE
®
MOVIE ADVANCE helps you locate certain parts of prerecorded movies (rented or purchased). This feature works two
ways: 1) you can go to the beginning of the movie, or, 2) you can skip from one preview to the next. MOVIE ADVANCE
works only on tapes with the safety tab removed and recorded in SP speed.
1. To select MOVIE ADVANCE, insert a tape with its safety tab
removed and press the SEARCH button on the remote control.
2. Press 1 if the tape is a purchased or rented movie, press 2 if it’s a
recording made at home, or press 3 if it’s something else, you
don’t know, or you do not want to select MOVIE ADVANCE.
Pressing 2 or 3 gives the same response and takes you to a
different search feature. If you accidentally make a wrong
selection, press STOP•EJECT on the VCR (STOP on remote) and
reinsert the tape. Press SEARCH.
If you press 1, the MOVIE ADVANCE menu appears.
3. Press 1 to advance directly to the beginning of the movie or press
2 to view the first (next) preview.
• Press 1 to Go To Movie. The following screen appears with a
blue background.
When the movie is found, The movie is ready. Press PLAY to start,
appears.
Note: You can press the STOP button to cancel the MOVIE
ADVANCE search.
• Press 2 to Go To Preview. The on-screen display will tell you
that the VCR is looking for the start of the next preview.
When a preview is detected, the VCR cues it and begins playing.
To Override the Show Previews Mode:
Press the SEARCH button while a tape is being searched.
Pressing the SEARCH button while:
• The tape is rewinding will begin searching for the start of the next
preview or long commercial.
• The tape is searching forward will reverse the tape back to the
beginning of the current preview.
• The VCR is playing will advance the tape to the start of the next
preview, long commercial, or the start of the movie (whichever
comes first).
