Quick search (CM skip)

Quick search lets you skip over the tape you are playing in about 30 second intervals. It is designed so that you can quickly speed through any commercials you may have recorded. To do this:

1Make sure that you have set the VCR/TV slide switch on the remote control to the VCR position.

2While playing a tape, choose the desired search time by pressing a number button.

The VCR will speed through the selected length of tape, then resume playback. This screen will show the search time and the gauge. Each mark on the gauge represents 15 seconds. The marks will disappear, one by one, every 15 seconds of the search time. You can select a search time up to 3 minutes.

Speed search

Use speed search to visually search through the contents of a videotape.

1While playing a tape, press FF or REW on the remote control. You will see the picture as it fast forwards or rewinds. Noise bars may appear in the pictures.

2When you are playing the tape recorded in analog format, if you press FF or REW and hold it down for about 1 second, the search speed will increase.

3To resume normal playback, press FF or REW again quickly, or press PLAY.

IMPORTANT

The fastest search speed that allows you to see the picture is about 30 times of normal speed. It is normal for the number of noise bars on the screen to increase and roll from top to bottom as the visual search speed increases. Using speed search for long stretches of tape may cause the video heads to become dirty faster.

The fastest way to move through the tape is without a picture, which allows you to search up to 500 times normal speed (for the tape recorded in analog format). To do this, press STOP, then FF or REW. If you press and hold FF or REW for more than 2 seconds, the search speed will slow to 280 times normal speed (for the tape recorded in analog format).

In order to protect your tapes and the VCR heads, the Fast Forwarding/ Rewinding Speed will be slower than 500x under the following conditions:

1 Use of tapes shorter in length than T-120 (for example, T-30, T-60, T-90).

2Use of tapes longer in length than T-120 (for example, T-160, T-180, T-210. Also for DF-300, DF360, DF-420, and DF-480).

3 Activating fast forwarding or rewinding from the middle of the tape. Speed search may not work correctly when playing back a tape recorded in both analog and digital format on the same tape.

When you record a digital program, there is a chance that it was broadcast as a non-standard digital signal. This means that while this D-VHS VCR can record the program, it may not display a picture when you use the visual search function (i.e. Speed Search). This is not a defect of the D-VHS VCR player.

The speed search may not work correctly when playing back a program recorded by multi stream recording or depending on the program you have recorded.
