VCR Recording
Before Recording
Before you start recording…
• This VCR records in VHS format, not S-VHS
format.
• Check that the tape is longer than the recording
time (page 71).
Notes
• Timer recordings will start with or without the recorder
turned on. Once started, the recorder cannot be turned
off. The recorder automatically turns off after a
recording has finished.
• This recorder shares a single tuner for both the DVD
recorder and the VCR. You cannot record different
programs to a DVD and a VHS tape at the same time.
• This recorder has the copy guard function. Programs
that contain a Copy-Never copy guard signal cannot be
correctly recorded on the VCR.
To prevent accidental erasure, break off the safety
tab as illustrated. To record on the tape again,
cover the tab hole with adhesive tape.
Recording mode
“EP” (Extended Play) and “SP” (Standard Play) is
available for recording mode (tape speed). “EP”
provides recording time three times as long as
“SP.” However, “SP” produces better picture and
audio quality.
Maximum recording time
Notes
• Tapes recorded in EP (×3) mode by this VCR cannot be
played back on VHS video decks with SP mode only.
• Noise may appear in the image when tapes recorded in
EP (×3) mode by this VCR are played back on other
VHS video decks with EP mode.
Recording a stereo/SAP program
The recorder can receive and record stereo/SAP
programs.
Stereo programs
When a stereo program is received, the
“STEREO” indicator lights up in the front panel
display. If there is noise in the stereo program,
press AUDIO repeatedly until the “MONO”
indicator disappears from the TV screen. The
sound will be recorded in monaural but with less
noise.
SAP (Second Audio Program)
When a SAP is received, the “SAP” indicator
lights up in the front panel display. To record only
SAP sound, set “Tuner Audio” of “Audio” to
“SAP” in the “Setup” display (page 97).
