Notes

In step 4 above, enter "000" if you don’t want to use the TV guide page number for automatic labelling. The VCR will instead store default data (date, programme position, duration etc.) in the label.

Refer to the Teletext information on your TV screen to get the TV guide page number with the programme titles and their start times.

If the Teletext TV guide has a page which always shows the programmes for the current day, this page should be input for all days.

If you start recording more than two minutes before the programme is scheduled to start, the correct label information may not be transferred. The VCR receives the label information two minutes after the recording starts.

If you set a timer recording with VPS/PDC OFF, the title information will be transferred in the middle of the recording.

Note that this function may not work correctly with programmes broadcast from some stations.

If the Broadcast system updates the Teletext information at the moment recording starts, the title on the label may not correspond to the one of the recorded programme. In this case, you may have to manually enter the correct title using the SMARTFILE EDIT MENU.

You cannot get the label information from sources connected to the LINE input or the satellite channels.
