Super VHS ET (S-VHS ET)— Recording on VHS cassettes with S-VHS quality
You can record in SP mode on VHS cassettes with S-VHS picture
quality. Tapes recorded using this function can be played back
on a recorder equipped with the S-VHS ET function.
You can activate the S-VHS ET function only before you start
recording on a VHS cassette.
Before recording, make sure that “B.E.S.T.” is set to “ON”.
(pg. 55)

Engage the S-VHS ET mode.

Press S-VHS ET on the recorder. The S-VHS ET indicator

on the recorder’s front panel lights up.

The S-VHS indicator lights up on the front display panel.
To disengage the S-VHS ET mode, press S-VHS ET. The
S-VHS ET indicator goes off.
NOTES:
You cannot activate the S-VHS ET function ...
... while recording is in progress.
... while timer-recording or Instant Timer Recording
(pg. 25) is in progress.
... while B.E.S.T. (pg.29) is in progress.
The S-VHS ET function does not work ...
... with S-VHS cassettes.
... with recordings in LP/EP mode.
To keep the highest quality recording and playback pictures
over a long period of time, S-VHS recording on S-VHS
cassettes is recommended.
Use of high grade tapes is recommended for S-VHS ET
recordings. On some tapes, picture quality will not improve
even if the S-VHS ET function is used. Check the recording
quality before you start important recordings.
You can play back a tape recorded using the S-VHS ET
function on most of S-VHS recorders and of VHS recorders
equipped with SQPB (S-VHS QUASI PLAYBACK) function.
(Notice some recorders are not compatible with the S-VHS ET
function.)
While playing back a tape recorded using the S-VHS ET
function on some recorders, noise may appear. (If playback
picture becomes blurred or interrupted, use a cleaning
cassette.)
In the high-speed search, still, slow-motion or frame-by-frame
playback modes (pg.21), noise may appear. If these modes
are performed frequently on a tape recorded using the
S-VHS ET function, the tape may be damaged and the picture
may be deteriorated.
