removed recorded in SP speed.

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.

the first (next) preview.
