On the default

ally correctly detect whether the input signal is PAL,
SECAM, 3.58 NTSC or PAL-60, but in some cases you
may have to set it manually if the picture is displayed
incorrectly.

instructions that came with your TV. See also About NTSC on PAL TV on page 117 for related information.
Audio In
NICAM Select
(except Taiwan and
Philippines model)
NICAM •
Record the NICAM audio in a NICAM broadcast.
Regular Audio
Record the non-NICAM audio in a NICAM broadcast.
(You can still switch the audio to record using the
AUDIO
button before recording.)
Tuner Level

Philippines model)
Normal •
Standard setting.
Compression
Use if the audio level from the built-in tuner is exces-
sive, causing distortion.
External Audio Stereo •
Select if the audio from the currently selected exter-

Select if each channel carries a separate soundtrack.
When the external audio is from the DV input, an audio subcode channel within the DV audio tells the recorder
whether the audio is stereo or dual mono/bilingual. This has priority over the setting you make here.
