Ensuring that a TV Programme Will Be

Recorded until Its End

(Auto SP/LP Change Function)

If, at the start of a timer recording, the VCR determines that

the remaining tape time is insufficient to record the whole

programme, the Auto SP/LP Change function automatically

selects LP mode to ensure that the whole programme will be

recorded. However, if the remaining tape time is still not

sufficient even in the LP mode, the programme cannot be

recorded to its end.

≥ If you programme a daily or weekly timer recording,

recording will be performed in the LP mode from the start

regardless of the remaining tape time.

≥ In case of a timer recording programmed with the VPS/PDC

function, if the TV programme continues past the

programmed ending time, the VCR automatically switches

over to the LP mode at that moment. However, in some

cases it may not be possible to record the programme until

its end.

≥ Use a video cassette on which a few minutes more than the

total length of programmed timer recordings remain,

otherwise the programmed timer recordings may be

performed in the LP mode.

≥ Be careful that the broadcast times of the TV programmes

set for timer recording do not overlap, otherwise the

programmed timer recordings may be performed in the LP

mode.

≥ If the recording speed changes from SP to LP during a

timer recording, some brief picture distortion occurs at that

point.

Condition for correct operation of the Auto SP/LP Change

function:

≥ The tape length of the inserted cassette must be set

correctly. (See page 35.)

To Activate the Auto SP/LP Change Function:

In operation step 6 when programming a timer recording with

the On Screen Display (see page 17), or in operation step 4

when programming with the ShowView number (see page

18), press the SP/LP button E to select “A”.

≥ When you press this button

repeatedly, the indication changes

in the following order:

Conditions for correct operation of the VPS/PDC function:

≥ “ON” must be displayed under “VPS/PDC” on the On

Screen Display.

≥ The TV station must broadcast VPS/PDC signals.

≥ The programme starting time must be set correctly to the

starting time listed in the newspaper/magazine.

To Activate the VPS/PDC Function:

In operation step 7 when

programming a timer recording with

the On Screen Display (see page 17),

or in operation step 4 when

programming with the ShowView

number (see page 18), press the Cursor buttons (3421)

Q to make the ON indication appear.
