SIMPLE PLAYBACK AND RECORDING

This recorder has a built-in VCR which will let you play back tapes that have been recorded in the D-VHS (bit stream) and VHS (analog) formats, as well as make your own recordings in the D-VHS and VHS formats. D-VHS cassettes and VHS can be used in the HM- DSR100DU/RU. For information on what types of cassettes can be used and which record- ing formats they work with, see the table below.

When loading a cassette, make sure the window side is up, the rear label side is facing you and the arrow on the front of the cassette is pointing towards the VCR. Do not apply excessive pressure when inserting. Incorrectly loaded cassettes can damage the recorder and/or the cassette being used.
