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.
This function cannot change the recording speed to the
EP mode.
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.
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 44.)
To Activate the Auto SP/LP Change Function:
In operation step 6 when programming a timer recording with
the On Screen Display (see page 21), or in operation step 4
when programming with the G-code number (see page 22),
press the SP/LP button E to select “A”.
When you press this button
repeatedly, the indication changes
