index/repeat/tracking
Note:
Your VCR
automatically records
index marks on the
cassette tape whenever a
recording is started.
The video index search
system will only work
once several recordings
have been made onto a
video cassette tape.
Occasionally, when a
recording has been
started at the very
beginning of a cassette
the index mark will be
missed.
When your VCR is
searching for an index
mark it will not fast
forward or rewind as fast
as normal because it is
searching for the index
marks.
A maximum of 9 index
marks can be searched
on a single video tape.
Automatic tracking:
When a video tape is
played, the digital auto
tracking system
automatically adjusts the
tracking of the VCR to
obtain the best picture
from the cassette tape.
