Adjusting picture condition — Digital TBC/NR
Your unit 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 Digital 3-DNR (Noise Reduction) which cuts noise and
enables clear picture reproduction is also linked to this function.
We recommend that you use the DIGITAL TBC/NR function
when...
— playing back a tape recorded on a camcorder.
— playing back a tape repeatedly used.
— using this unit as the source player for editing.
Press TBC on the unit so that the TBC lamp lights up on the unit.
Each time you press the button, it toggles this function on and off.
NOTES:
If you play back a tape recorded under poor TV reception condition,
the picture may become more stable with Digital TBC/NR
deactivated.
If you play back a tape where certain types of signals are recorded
(using a PC or some character generators) with Digital TBC/NR
activated, the playback picture may be distorted. In this case,
deactivate Digital TBC/NR.
Digital TBC/NR and Video Stabilizer (pg.72) cannot be used at
the same time; if you activated Digital TBC/NR when “VIDEO
STABILIZER” is set to “ON”, Video Stabilizer will be automatically
turned “OFF”. Make sure Digital TBC/NR is deactivated when you
