VHS tape to DVD disc. For details, refer to page 37 –38.

(VISS signal).

TAPE END

8 VIDEO CALIBRATION — ON / OFF

You can set the Video Calibration to “ON” or “OFF”. 

● When watching a tape recorded with “VIDEO CALIBRATION” set to 

“ON”, it is recommended that you leave “VIDEO CALIBRATION” on 
during playback as well.

● When watching a rental tape or one recorded on another video 

recorder, or when using this unit as the player for editing, set “VIDEO 
CALIBRATION” to your preference.

● The Video Calibration works for both SP and EP modes only after a 

tape has been inserted and the Record mode is first initiated. It does 
not work during recording.

● The Video Calibration does not work while Automatic Satellite 

Program Recording is in progress. (

pg. 36) In the case of timer 

recordings, the Video Calibration works before recording is initiated.

● Once the cassette is ejected, the Video Calibration data is cancelled. 

The next time the cassette is used for recording, Video Calibration is 
re-performed.

8 AUTO SP]

 — ON / OFF

When this function is set to “ON”, the unit automatically switches to 
EP mode to allow complete recording if there is not enough tape to 
record the entire program while timer-recording in SP mode.

For Example:
Recording a program of 140 minutes in length onto a 120-minute 
tape.

Make sure you set this function to “ON”, before the timer-recording 
starts.

● If you have programed the unit to timer-record 2 or more programs, 

the second program and those thereafter may not fit on the tape if 
you set “AUTO SP]EP TIMER” to “ON”. In this case, make sure the 
mode is not engaged, then set the tape speed manually during timer 
programing.

● In order to ensure that the recording fits on the tape, this feature may 

leave a slight non-recorded section at the end of the tape.

● There may be some noise and sound disturbance at the point on the 

tape where the unit switches from SP to EP mode.

● The “AUTO SP]EP TIMER” feature is not available during ITR 

(Instant Timer Recording), and the feature will not work properly on 
the following tapes: T(ST)-30, T(ST)-60, T(ST)-90, and T(ST)-120.

● Turn on the unit.

● Turn on the TV and select the AV mode.

● Slide the TV/DVD switch to DVD.
