Magnavox SVB106 MTS Broadcast Stereo System, Understanding On-Screen Displays, Monitor

42 MTS Broadcast Stereo System

Your VCR can play recordings broadcast in Hi-Fi (high fidelity) stereo, which produces a crisp, clear sound from two sources. Your VCR also can play tapes recorded in a second audio (usually, that means your program is recorded in a second language). Of course, your VCR will play tapes recorded in monaural (single-source) sound as well.

Your VCR also will record in Hi-Fi stereo or in second audio, so when you play back that tape on the VCR, it will be in stereo or second audio.

Read the directions on this page to familiarize yourself with your VCR’s stereo and second audio setups. Then follow the directions on page 43 to record in stereo or second audio and the directions on page 44 to play back tapes recorded in Hi-Fi stereo.

Understanding On-Screen Displays

When you receive a signal from a channel you’re watching, portions of the on-screen display shown below will appear when you press the DISPLAY button on the remote control.

STOP	12:00 AM
	CH 02
	STEREO
	SAP

The indication SAP or STEREO that appears on the status display tells you if the program you’re watching is available in second audio or stereo.

Even though a program is available in second audio or stereo, you still must program the VCR to receive or record the program. Follow the directions on page 43. This indication is not available during tape playback.

SLP

To record and play back programs broadcast in stereo, even if you have a Single Speaker TV, just use one of the connections shown, then follow the steps on pages 43-44.
