Adjusts problems with the brightness of video signals of TV broadcasts or other external input.

Press the / buttons to select the source, and the / buttons to select the mode.

(Only use this setting when you cannot adjust the brightness satisfactorily with the “Custom picture setting” in the “Picture/Audio settings” ( Page 118) of this recorder.)

Important:

•This setting changes the video signal to record and the recorded signal is not returned to the original state even when this setting is changed after recording. When duplicating from VHS tape, if you can check the video recording state beforehand, we recommend first playing back for a while and checking the overall brightness tendency, then setting an appropriate mode.

Standard:

The brightness of signals received with this recorder and external input signals is adjusted automatically. Use this mode normally.

Mode 1:

This setting is used to record the signals darker when the screen is too bright.

Mode 2, 3, 4:

As the number rises, the signals are recorded brighter. Use these modes to adjust the brightness.
