Auto SP→EP Timer

If, when recording in SP mode, there is not enough tape to record the entire program, the VCR automatically switches to EP mode to allow complete recording. This feature is especially handy when recording a program of more than 2 hours in length.

For Example . . .

Recording a program of 140 minutes in length onto a 120- minute tape

Approximately 110 minutes

 

Approximately 30 minutes

SP mode

 

EP mode

 

Total 140 minutes

Make sure you set "AUTO SP→EP TIMER" to “ON” at the Function screen before the timer recording starts.

NOTES:

If you have programmed the VCR to timer-record 2 or more programs, the second program and those thereafter may not fit on the tape though you set the Auto SP→EP Timer mode to "ON". In this case, make sure the mode is not engaged, then set the tape speed manually during timer programming.

In order to ensure that the recording fits on the tape, this feature may leave a slight non-recorded section at the end of the tape.

There may be some noise at the point on the tape where the VCR switches from SP to EP mode.

The Auto SP→EP Timer feature is not available during ITR (Instant Timer Recording), and the feature will work with the following tapes: T(ST)-30, T(ST)-60, T(ST)-90, and T(ST)-120.

The result is a seamless viewing experience without the hassle of manual adjustments.

Picture quality is further emphasized through their integration of various processing technologies. JVC has implemented features such as high-speed rewind, which allows users to quickly navigate through tapes, and crystal-clear playback options that enhance the overall viewing experience. These features ensure that users enjoy their media without compromise.

Both models include standard connectivity options, such as RCA video outputs and audio outputs, allowing for easy integration with older televisions and home theater systems. The HR-VP673U even offers additional S-video outputs, providing increased video quality for enhanced viewing.

In summary, the JVC HR-VP673U and HR-VP473U are excellent choices for anyone looking to invest in a reliable and feature-rich VCR.
