8B.E.S.T. — ON / OFF

You can set the B.E.S.T. (Biconditional Equalised Signal Tracking)
system to “ON” or “OFF”. (墌pg. 55)
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. (墌pg. 50)
●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. (墌pg. 55)

8PICTURE CONTROL — AUTO / EDIT / SOFT / SHARP

This feature helps you to adjust the playback picture quality
according to your preference. Normally select “AUTO”.
AUTO: Picture quality is adjusted automatically.
EDIT: Minimizes picture degradation during editing (recording and
playback).
SOFT: Reduces image coarseness when viewing overplayed tapes
containing a lot of noise.
SHARP: Clearer, sharper-edged picture when viewing images with
lots of flat, same-coloured surfaces such as cartoons.
NOTES:
●When you select “EDIT”, “SOFT” or “SHARP”, the selected mode will
not change until you select another mode.
●When you select “EDIT” to dub tapes, be sure to select “NORM” after
you finish dubbing the tapes.
●When “B.E.S.T.” is “OFF”, “PICTURE CONTROL” switches
automatically from “AUTO” to “NORM”.

8O.S.D. — AUTO / OFF

When this function is set to “AUTO”, various operational indicators
appear on the TV screen. Messages appear in the selected
language. (墌pg. 22)
NOTES:
●Even when “O.S.D.” is set to “OFF”, you can display the various
operational indicators by pressing ON SCREEN. To clear the
operational indicators, press ON SCREEN again.
●When you use this unit as the source player for editing, be sure to set
“O.S.D.” to “OFF” before starting.
●During playback, the operation mode indicators may be disturbed
depending on the type of tape being used.

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.
For Example:
Recording a programme of 140 minutes in length onto a 120-
minute tape
Make sure you set this function to “ON”, before the timer-recording
starts.
NOTES:
●If you have programmed the unit to timer-record 2 or more
programmes, the second programme and those thereafter may not fit
on the tape if you set “AUTO SP]LP TIMER” to “ON”. In this case,
make sure the mode is not engaged, then set the tape speed
manually during timer programming.
●In order to ensure that the recording fits on the tape, this feature may
leave a slight non-recorded section at the end of the tape.
●There may be some noise and sound disturbance at the point on the
tape where the unit switches from SP to LP mode.
●The Auto SP]LP Timer feature is not available during ITR (Instant
Timer Recording), and the feature will not work properly on the
following tapes: T(ST)-30, T(ST)-60, T(ST)-90, and T(ST)-120
