8 CONFIRM OR CANCEL
When recording is stopped, the VCR will alert
you that, “The VCR will begin marking commer-
cials in 59 seconds...”
No action is required to mark the commer-
cials on the recording; simply wait 59 sec-
onds for the confirmation screen to count
down.
If you are not present for the 59 second
countdown, the VCR will automatically mark
the commercials anyway; e.g., if you set a
Timer Recording or One Touch Recording
and the TV is turned off, the commercials
will still be marked.
To cancel, press STOP in Deck 1 and the
commercials will not be marked.
9 MARK COMMERCIALS
When the 59 seconds have elapsed, the VCR
will rewind to the start of the recording, and
then search forward and mark groups of com-
mercials.
This process takes approximately 15 minutes
for each hour of recorded tape.
The VCR will stop when finished.
Rewind the tape and proceed to “Skipping
Commercials” on the following page.
MARKING COMMERCIALS
NOTES
When you use Timer Recording to record two consecutive shows on the same channel, program each
show separately so that the prologues and epilogues are not automatically skipped.
COMMERCIAL ADVANCE will only mark recordings longer than 20 minutes.
