The noise on the screen may not be completely eliminated depending on the tape used, especially when the tape was recorded on another VCR.

DNR (Digital Noise Reduction) (For W-808 only)

The noise reduction function of this VCR is based

on a digital signals system utilizing memory. It is effective in the playback of noisy tapes as well as S-VIDEO and RF in video signal.

Furthermore the CSE (Color Signal Enhancement) circuit, which is included in the system, compensates for color signal weakness and gives the best possible color. Thanks to this circuit color distortion is reduced and a sharp picture is played back.

Press DNR repeatedly to select the following:
DnR On:

Usually set to “O

n ”.

 

The “D n R O

n ” will appear on the TV

 

screen and you can view the picture

DnR OFF:

with less noise.

 

This function will not work.

Notes

The DNR playback is available only in the playback mode.

Depending on the recorded picture, for example too vivid or too noisy, you may not notice a reduction in the noise.

The noise reduction may not work on pictures recorded from special equipment such as TV game machines or computers.

The picture sharpness can be changed by full
screen OSD setting. (See page 16.)
