S-VHS ET

This facility allows recording with S-VHS picture quality on VHS cassettes. You can play back those cassettes recorded in S-VHS ET on
a recorder equipped with S-VHS ET.
NOTES:
●
To obtain the highest quality recording and playback pictures over a longer period on this model, S-VHS recording on S-VHS tape is
recommended.
●
You can play back S-VHS ET recordings not only on this recorder but also on another VHS recorder equipped with S-VHS ET.
* It is recommended to specifically label S-VHS ET recordings so you can easily distinguish them from regular VHS recordings.
●
S-VHS ET recordings can also be played back on an S-VHS recorder or a VHS recorder equipped with SQPB (S-VHS QUASI
PLAYBACK) function. However, there may be cases where S-VHS ET playback is not possible on a particular recorder.
●
Frequent search (including TimeScan), still, frame-by-frame and slow-motion playback may damage the tape and cause picture
degradation.
●
With some tapes, better picture quality may not be obtained even with S-VHS ET recording. It is recommended that you do test
record beforehand to make sure whether better results can be obtained.
●
High Grade tapes are recommended for superior results.
●
Make sure that "B.E.S.T." is set to "ON" (
Z
pg. 26).
●
During S-VHS ET playback, noise may appear depending on tape quality.
●
Noise may appear during search (including TimeScan), still, frame-by-frame and slow-motion playback.
●
If the playback picture becomes blurred or interrupted, use a cleaning cassette.
