Optimising tracking

This video recorder has an automatic tracking function. In order for the video heads to optimally read the video track of the newly inserted video cassette, the tape speed is slightly corrected automatically.

appears in the display.

or

P

until the playback quality is

 

at its best.

 

 

 

3Wait a few seconds, until 'TRAC' disappears from the display.

These selected picture settings will not change until you eject the cassette.

Optimising still picture

If the still picture vibrates vertically, you can improve the still picture as follows:

1 During still picture, hold P or P until the picture quality is at its best.

'JITT' will appear in the display.

2When you release the button, 'JITT' will disappear.

The video recorder will store these settings automatically.
