Audio output
The recorder's TIME JOG & SCAN indicator lights during TimeScan.
The speed is shown during TimeScan in the upper right corner of the TV screen for approx. 5 seconds. (The display may be
distorted.)
To resume normal playback, press PLAY.
When using the recorder's TIME SCAN SHUTTLE ring, the playback speed may not change in the correct step if it is turned
too fast.
Picture and audio may become distorted when the recording speed changes. When this happens, resume normal playback
once, and then try using TimeScan again.
The picture may be noisy or there may be a loss of colour when you change the playback speed. (More noise will appear with
LP recordings.)
Noise may appear or the upper part of the picture may be distorted during still, frame-by-frame playback, 2x search of LP
recordings, or depending on the tape being used.
Picture may appear distorted in comparison to normal playback.
When normal playback resumes from search (including TimeScan), still, slow motion or frame-by-frame playback, the picture
may jitter vertically momentarily depending on the type of TV being used.
In TimeScan mode there will be a time lag between the video and the audio and noise may appear in the audio signal.
TimeScan sound quality will differ in comparison to normal playback.
When material such as music videos where there is non-stop sound (very few breaks in the soundtrack) are viewed at 1.5x or
2x normal speed, the audio playback may be faster than normal.
Depending on the type of tape contents, the sound may not be clear during forward slow-motion playback.
Time Jog cannot be activated by pressing PAUSE for longer than 2 seconds.
When the playback direction is reversed, it takes approximately 6 seconds until sound is heard.
Picture will be monochrome with an LP-recorded MESECAM tape during TimeScan.
When playing back an NTSC tape, the speeds differ from those listed above and are not shown on the TV screen, and the
TIME JOG & SCAN indicator does not light.
Also, depending on the type of tape being used, the picture may be distorted and there may be a loss of colour even when in
the TimeScan mode.
TimeScan at -1/2x, 1/2x and 1.5x normal speed are not possible with a MESECAM tape.
If you don't want to hear TimeScan audio, set "TIME SCAN AUDIO" to "OFF" (See below).
