S-VHS ET

This facility allows recording with S-VHS picture quality on VHS cassettes. You can play back those cassettes recorded in S-VHS ET on a VCR equipped with S-VHS ET.

NOTES:

●To obtain the highest quality recording and playback pictures over a longer period on this model, S-VHS recording on S-VHS tape is recommended.

●You can play back S-VHS ET recordings not only on this VCR but also on another VHS VCR equipped with S-VHS ET.

*It is recommended to specifically label S-VHS ET recordings so you can easily distinguish them from regular VHS recordings.

●S-VHS ET recordings can also be played back on an S- VHS VCR or a VHS VCR equipped with SQPB (S-VHS QUASI PLAYBACK) function. However, there may be cases where S-VHS ET playback is not possible on a particular VCR.

●Frequent still, frame-by-frame and slow-motion playback may damage the tape and cause picture degradation.

●With some tapes, better picture quality may not be obtained even with S-VHS ET recording. It is recom- mended that you do test record beforehand to make sure whether better results can be obtained.

●High Grade tapes are recommended for superior results.

●Make sure that "VIDEO CALIBRATION" is set to "ON" at the Function screen ( pg. 34).

●During S-VHS ET playback, noise may appear depending on tape quality.

●Noise may appear during still, frame-by-frame and slow- motion playback.

●If the playback picture becomes blurred or interrupted, use a cleaning cassette.
