NOTES:
About NTSC Playback
Some TVs shrink the picture vertically and place black bars at
the top and bottom of the screen. This is not a malfunction on
the part of either the video recorder or the TV.
The picture may roll up and down. This can be corrected
using the V-HOLD control found on some TVs. (This cannot
be corrected if the TV does not have a V-HOLD control.)
The counter and tape remaining time readings will be
incorrect.
During search, still, or frame-by-frame playback, the picture
will be distorted, and there may be a loss of colour.
Depending on the type of TV, the top and bottom portions of
superimposed displays may be cut off during NTSC playback.
You can play back PAL, NTSC and MESECAM tapes, or record
PAL and SECAM* signals on this recorder. Follow the procedure
below to select the appropriate colour system.
* SECAM signals will be recorded as MESECAM on this recorder;
MESECAM is the designation for tapes with SECAM signals that have
been recorded on a MESECAM-compatible PAL video cassette
recorder.
