Stereo recording and playback

VCR

This VCR/DVD is capable of recording Hi-Fi quality sound. When recording on a video cassette, a broadcast which is transmitted in NICAM Stereo normally records to the HiFi audio tracks - the normal Mono FM audio signal is recorded to the mono audio track on the cassette. The NICAM stereo reception can be switched off if required, but normally you would leave this on the Automatic setting (See page 26). When a bilingual broadcast is received, both soundtracks will be recorded (when recording to cassette only). However, bilingual broadcasts are not usually transmitted in the UK.

NICAM programmes are divided into 4 types as shown below.

NOTE:

When playing HiFi cassette tapes recorded on another VCR, the sound output may be distorted. This is normal and no indication of a unit malfunction. Try to minimise sound distortions by using TRK (TRACKING) +/– or change to MONO by pressing of AUDIO SELECT.

Output selection for DVD VR mode Video mode DVD-R

You can switch between the left or right channel and stereo only when playing a disc on which a bilingual broadcast was recorded in the DVD-RW VR mode. It is not possible to switch between channels otherwise as only the channel selected in the setting of NICAM (AUTOMATIC or OFF) is recorded in the DVD-RW Video mode or DVD-R (see page 25).
