* The default setting is bold in the table below.
8B.E.S.T. — ON / OFF
You can set the B.E.S.T. (Biconditional Equalised Signal Tracking) system to “ON” or “OFF”. ( pg. 23)
NOTES:
●When watching a tape recorded with “B.E.S.T.” set to “ON”, it is recommended that you leave B.E.S.T. on during playback as well.
●When watching a rental tape or one recorded on another video recorder, or when using this unit as the player for editing, set B.E.S.T. to your preference.
●The B.E.S.T. system works for both SP and LP modes only after a tape has been inserted and the Record mode is first initiated. It does not work during recording.
●The B.E.S.T. system does not work while Automatic Satellite Programme Recording is in progress. ( pg. 28)
●In the case of timer recordings, the B.E.S.T. system works before recording is initiated.
●Once the cassette is ejected, the B.E.S.T. data is cancelled. The next time the cassette is used for recording, B.E.S.T. is re- performed.
●Pressing the unit’s 7 button while “BEST” is displayed does not start Instant Timer Recording. ( pg. 22)
8PICTURE CONTROL— AUTO / EDIT / SOFT
This feature helps you to adjust the playback picture quality according to your preference. Normally select “AUTO”.
AUTO: Provides the optimised picture benefits of the B.E.S.T. Picture System.
EDIT: Minimizes picture degradation during editing (recording and playback).
SOFT: Reduces image coarseness when viewing overplayed tapes containing a lot of noise.
8AUTO SP]LP TIMER — ON / OFF
When this function is set to “ON”, the unit automatically switches to LP mode to allow complete recording if there is not enough tape to record the entire programme while timer- recording in SP mode.
