JVC HR-DD848E User Manual

Your recorder is equipped with a Sound-Multiplex decoder (A2) and,
if you own the HR-DD848EH, a Digital stereo sound decoder
(NICAM) as well, making reception of stereo and bilingual broad-
casts possible.

When the channel is changed, the type of broadcast being
received will be displayed on the TV screen for a few seconds.

● Stereo programmes are automatically recorded in stereo on

the Hi-Fi audio track (with the normal audio track recording
mixed L and R channel sound).

● Bilingual programmes are automatically recorded in bilingual

on the Hi-Fi audio track. The main soundtrack will be recorded
on the normal audio track.

● If the quality of stereo sound being received is poor, the

broadcast will be received in monaural with better quality.

● Before playing back a programme recorded in stereo, or a

bilingual programme, refer to "Soundtrack Selection" (

 pg. 16).
