detects and marks the beginning and end points of commercials on your tape for recordings over 15
minutes in length. When 
marked tape is played back, the VCR a automatically advances through the commercial segments at high speed. You can also set this feature to Manual so as to have more control over the advance process. The effectiveness of this system can vary due to differences in the way television stations broadcast. See page 28 for answers to the most commonly asked questions about this feature.
