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 want to use Video Stabilizer.
