Intelligent LP Recording
When you set the tape speed to “IP”, the DVD/VIDEO receiver automatically switches to LP mode to allow complete recording if there is not enough tape to record the entire programme while timer- recording in SP mode.
It is not possible to set the tape speed to “IP” with “PDC” set to “ON”.
