PLAYBACK OF A VIDEO TAPE

PLAYING BACK AN S-VHS TAPE

S-VHS (super -VHS) pre-recorded tapes give you a better quality playback picture with increased detail and depth.

Your VCR will automatically recognise which type of tape is being used, VHS or S-VHS and playback the appropriate standard accordingly.

NOTES:

All of the VCR’s playback functions can be used during S-VHS playback, SLOW, PLAY/X2 VISUAL SEARCH, etc.

Your VCR is S-VHS playback only, it will not record S-VHS.

Some picture noise may be observed on the screen in Long Play (LP) mode.

PLAYING BACK AN NTSC TAPE

NTSC (National Television Standards Committee) is a different TV standard to PAL and is used in some Non-European Countries. Your VCR can playback pre-recorded NTSC tapes onto a PAL system TV, but cannot record an NTSC signal onto a video tape.

Note that..

You cannot record NTSC signals or dub NTSC tapes onto other VCR’s from this VCR.

You cannot use Slow speed, Still frame, Double Speed, Frame Advance or Tape Remaining with a pre-recorded NTSC tape.

On some televisions, the picture may appear in black and white or there may be no picture. This does not indicate a fault with your VCR.

On some televisions, the picture may shrink vertically causing black bands to appear at the top and bottom of your screen.

On some televisions, the played-back picture may roll vertically, this does not indicate a fault with your VCR.
