To Check What Programmes are Recorded on the Inserted Video Cassette and To 
Play Back a Desired Programme

First, perform the operation steps explained on page 15.

Then press the [Cursor] buttons (

34

) to select the 

programme and then press the [LIBRARY/SEARCH] 
button.
• After the selected programme has been found, the 

current tape contents list disappears and playback 
starts automatically.

• When you select the [Find space to record] indication at 

the bottom of the On Screen Display and press the 
[LIBRARY/SEARCH] button, the VCR automatically 
winds the tape to a position from which you can start 
recording.

• When you select the [Intro-Jet Scan] indication at the 

bottom of the On Screen Display and press the 
[LIBRARY/SEARCH] button, Intro-Jet Scan starts. 
(See page 41.)

• Rewind the tape to its beginning.

Press the [LIBRARY/SEARCH] button.
• The Cassette Number Check starts automatically. Wait 

a few moments until the check is completed. When it is 
completed, the cassette number and its contents 
(recorded programmes) appear on the On Screen 
Display, and the cassette number appears on the VCR 
display.

If the cassette number does not appear and the following indication is 
displayed:

Press the [INDEX] 

L

 button once to start the search for 

a programme. When playback starts, wait a few 
moments and then press the [LIBRARY/SEARCH] 
button.

• If the cassette number still does not appear, repeat this 

process until it appears.

Hint:
• Even after you have pressed the [Cursor] buttons 

34

) to select the [Find space to record] and the VCR has located the 

tape position from which to make a new recording, we recommend you to confirm that this tape position is really suitable, before 
you start recording.

Note:
• In the case of certain cassettes, for example cassettes recorded on another NV-FJ780B model VCR or cassettes whose 

cassette number was deleted from the Tape Library data, the cassette number and contents (recorded programmes) are not 
displayed.
