Programming a Timer Recording of a TV Program Until its End

(Auto SP/EP Change Function )

If, during a timer recording performed in the SP mode, the VCR determines that the remaining tape time is insufficient to record the program to its end, the Auto SP/EP Change function automatically changes the tape speed to EP to ensure that the whole program will be recorded.

Depending on the remaining tape length, recording may be performed in the EP mode from the start. However, if the remaining tape time is still not sufficient in this case, the program cannot be recorded to the end.
