RECORDING

Smart Speed Record Function

When the Smart Speed Record function is set, the VCR automatically calculates the remaining time left on the tape during recording. If there is not enough time left for the program to be recorded, the VCR switches the recording speed from SP (standard play) to SLP (super long play) to enable the entire program to fit onto the remaining tape.

œTo set the Smart Speed Record function, press the SP/SLP button until “SS” is displayed on-screen at the Recording tape speed display position (or both SP and SLP indicators light on the indicator panel).

Recording will start in SP mode. During recording, based on a calculation using the remaining tape and the XDS signal information, if the remaining tape duration is not enough to record the program to the end, the recording speed will be automatically switched to SLP mode. If the necessary information is not contained in the received XDS signal, the recording will be done in SP mode.

For example, when recording a 150-minute program onto a T-120 (120-minute) tape:

The recording will be done in SP mode for almost 105 minutes and in SLP mode for the last 45 minutes.

During Smart Speed Recording, the current recording speed indicator will flash on the display.

During Smart Speed Recording, SS will appear on the screen.

NOTES:

œDuring timer recording, the set end time will be considered as the time the program ends.

œIf during Quick Timer Recording (QTR), the end time is set using the REC and/or CH/TRACK l (or j) buttons, the duration until the set end time will be considered as one single program.

œThis feature will not work properly on T-140 tapes or tapes longer than T-160. (The feature will work on T-160 tapes.)

œIf two or more timer recordings are programmed, all the programs may not fit onto a single tape. In that case, make sure the Smart Speed Record mode is not set, and select the recording speed manually.

œThere may be some interference in the image at the point where the speed has been switched.

œIf a program to be taped cannot fit into the remaining time left on the tape, even in SLP mode, the program will not be recorded till the end.
