Programming a Timer Recording of a TV Programme Until its End

(Rec Mode Auto Change Function)

If the VCR determines that the remaining tape time is insufficient to record the programme to its end during a timer recording performed in the SP mode, this function automatically changes the Rec Mode to ensure that the whole programme will be recorded.

The Rec Mode will change as follows:

PAL system:

SP # LP

NTSC system:

SP # EP

• This function cannot change the recording mode to the

Timer recording for the same programme on the next week (Intelligent Timer)

When you wish to set the timer recording for programmes which will be recorded within 1 week and you have ever recorded the programmes before, you can record them soon with I-TIMER function without entering day and time by buttons. Select the desired setting from the list of timer programme recorded before. Please check the date and time carefully.

Preparations

The VCR must be turned on, or in timer recording standby mode.

Confirm that the TV is on and the VCR viewing channel is selected.

Insert a video cassette with an intact erasure prevention tab.

1Press [I-TIMER] (24) to display the menu for Intelligent Timer on the TV screen.

EP mode for PAL system.

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

The tape length must be set correctly. (See page 8.) Some tapes may not work correctly.

If the recording mode changes from SP to LP during a timer recording, some brief picture distortion occurs at that point.

To Activate the Rec Mode Auto Change Function:

Press [REC MODE] (33) to select [A].

NV-MV21GN specifications

The Panasonic NV-MV21GN is a notable entry in the realm of VHS camcorders, an iconic device designed for home users and aspiring filmmakers alike. This model delivered remarkable performance and reliability during its time, showcasing features that catered to both casual recording and more serious videography.

At the heart of the NV-MV21GN is its compact form factor, making it convenient for portability. Weighing just a few kilograms, users can easily carry it for various outings, be it family events or nature trips. The camcorder boasts a sleek design, with an intuitive layout that allows users to access controls efficiently.

One of the standout features of the NV-MV21GN is its 22x optical zoom lens, allowing users to capture distant subjects with clarity and detail. This optical zoom capability is complemented by a digital zoom, enhancing flexibility for different types of shots. The 800x digital zoom offers additional options while ensuring that image quality remains acceptable even at extended focal lengths.

The camcorder also integrates a built-in image stabilization system, which minimizes the impact of shaky hands and movements, making video footage smoother and more professional in appearance. This feature is particularly beneficial for amateur videographers seeking to create high-quality recordings without the need for professional stabilization equipment.

This dual recording option gives users the flexibility to choose between extended recording times or better video quality, depending on their needs. The NV-MV21GN supports VHS-C tapes, which are compact and convenient for use in smaller camcorders while maintaining the same quality as standard VHS tapes.

User-friendliness is enhanced by a clear viewfinder and a flip-out LCD screen, providing easy framing and playback options. With its capability to capture audio through a built-in microphone, the NV-MV21GN ensures that recordings are comprehensive, combining both visual and auditory elements effectively.
