Digital TBC/NR
Your recorder is equipped with the Digital TBC (Time Base
Corrector) that removes jitter from fluctuating video signals to
deliver a stable picture even with old tapes and rental cassettes.
The on/off of Digital 3-DNR (Noise Reduction) which cuts noise
and enables clear picture reproduction is also linked to this
function.
* The default setting is on.
We recommend that you use Digital TBC/NR when...
... playing back a tape recorded on a camcorder.
... playing back a tape repeatedly used.
... using this video recorder as the source player for editing.

Activate Digital TBC/NR.

Press DIGITAL TBC/NR so that the button lights up.
●To turn off Digital TBC/NR, press DIGITAL TBC/NR again so
that the light goes off.

NOTES:

●If you play back a tape recorded under poor TV reception
condition, the picture may become more stable with Digital
TBC/NR set to off.
●When Digital TBC/NR is set to on, if you play back a tape
where certain types of signals are recorded (using a PC or
some character generators), the playback picture may be
distorted. If this is the case, turn off Digital TBC/NR.
●When playing back a MESECAM tape, Digital TBC/NR does
not function even though the DIGITAL TBC/NR button is lit.
