Selecting the recording speed

 

You have the option of two playback and recording

 

speeds: Standard Play (SP) offers the usual first-class

 

picture quality, and with Long Play (LP) you can for

 

example (with somewhat reduced picture quality)

 

record about 360 minutes on a 180-minute cassette.

 

In Auto Long Play (AL), the video recorder recognises

 

how much remaining playing time is available and

 

automatically selects SP or LP. The previous chapter

FOR

explains how to set the desired recording speed

(“Selecting the recording speed”)
