S-VHS Quasi Play Back (SQPB)

This unit has a SQPB function that allows you to view a tape you recorded in S-VHS format. An S-VHS format tape will play the same as a normal format tape. This unit automatically detects whether the tape is in S-VHS format or in normal format. When you play an S-VHS tape on this unit, you can not get the high resolution that would be available on an S-VHS VCR. Noise lines (black and white streaks) may appear on the picture.

Helpful Hints

If the tape you want to play is already in the VCR, make sure the VCR power is on and the VCR is in VCR position. (The VCR light will appear on the display panel. If it does not, press the VCR/TV button once.) Press the VCR button, then press the PLAY/o button.

Other playback options and features are on pages 38-45.

If REPEAT PLAY is ON, playback will begin automatically when you insert a tape, even when the record tab is intact. (However, playback will not begin if the VCR power is off and a timer recording is set.)
