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 elapsed tape 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.
