VRZ360AT

Hi-Fi Stereo Sound with Built-In MTS/SAP Decoder
Record stereo videotapes from stereo sound sources and playback 
pre-recorded hi-fi stereo tapes in hi-fi stereo sound–with an excellent
90dB+ dynamic range–through a stereo-equipped TV or regular TV and
stereo hi-fi home audio system. The built-in MTS/SAP decoder allows
reception and recording of off-air television stereo broadcasts and second
audio program transmissions, where available. Back-up memory logic
retains the cable channel guide map indefinitely even during a power failure
or when the VCR is disconnected from its power source.

VCR Plus+™ Programming
Simplifies VCR programming by allowing you to simply enter PlusCode

®

programming numbers found in many published television listings. When
recording begins, your VCR automatically selects the proper TV channel
and program length. Back-up memory logic retains the cable channel
guide map indefinitely even during a power failure or when the VCR is
disconnected from its power source.

SQPB (S-VHS Quasi-Playback) 
A revolutionary video playback technology that allows you to watch
videotapes recorded in the S-VHS (Super-VHS) mode. Now you too can
enjoy the videos that your Uncle made at the last family reunion without
buying expensive S-VHS equipment.

Incredible Picture™ 
For picture detail that’s so real, you’ll think you’re a member of the cast!
The menu-selectable Incredible Picture settings boost picture detail
beyond average, all the way to incredible! Choose from NORMAL,
VIDEO ENHANCER, or INCREDIBLE PICTURE modes.

Video Stabilizer 
For those problem SLP recordings that just won’t stop jittering.
Activation of the Video Stabilizer circuit generates an artificial vertical
reference that improves the vertical lock and greatly reduces bounce.

4-Head, Double Azimuth Design 
Combines direct drive cylinder and capstan motors with precision digital
servo control to produce excellent special effects reproduction in Still
and Slow modes in both SP and SLP speeds.

SmartClock™
This menu-driven feature automatically maintains the correct time, regularly
checking and updating the time if necessary. It also resets the clock after
a power failure. The menu-driven time zone feature allows selection of
appropriate time for those who live in a time zone other than that of
their CATV service provider.

Automatic Channel Setup
The VCR tuner scans through television frequencies, automatically 
storing active broadcast channel into memory. Then, only active channels
programmed into memory are tuned using the CHANNEL ▲ ▼ buttons
on either the remote or front panel of the VCR. Automatic channel 
preset can be repeated whenever desired, should new channels become
available. Channels can be manually added or deleted.

Front Panel Audio/Video Inputs 
Provide added convenience to the user when recording tapes directly from a
camcorder to the VCR. In addition, accessory video equipment such as a video
game or Web browser can be connected for direct playthrough to the TV set.

181-Channel FS Tuning 
The digital quartz tuner can receive up to 181 channels, including UHF,
VHF, and 113 cable channels, without the inconvenience and expense of a
cable company decoder/converter (on non-scrambled cable systems).
Channel tuning is by random access with the remote control transmitter or
scan tuning up and down by remote or at the set.

Clock/Function Display
Continuously alerts you to all important recording and playback conditions, 
correct time, counter position, tape speed, channel number, etc. When the VCR
is turned off, the time display automatically dims to make it less distracting.

Trilingual (English/Spanish/French) Onscreen Display
Indicates record/playback functions, channel number, clock setting, date,
counter, programming, one-touch record and record standby, keeping you
alert to the status of all features in a heads-up onscreen display in your
choice of English, Spanish, or French. 

21x Forward/Reverse Latching Search 
Search in forward or reverse mode at 21 times normal playing speed in SLP,
and 7 times normal in SP. The Latching Search feature provides continuous
forward or reverse search with a single touch of the control. A second
touch stops the search operation and returns the unit to the Play mode.

VCR/Universal TV/CBL Remote 
Multifunction infrared remote controls all operating features and functions
of this VCR, plus select functions of most Philips Magnavox and some 
competitive brand television sets, as well as some cable converter/decoders.
Change channels fast with the numeric direct access keypad and heads-up
onscreen display for confirmation.
