Hi-Fi Stereo Sound System
Your DVD/CD/VCR receiver will record and play back
Hi-Fi stereo sound. In addition it has a NICAM digital
stereo sound decoder. This allows you to record and
play back the sound in several different ways. Video
cassettes recorded on your DVD/CD/VCR receiver will
have a normal mono audio track and two VHS Hi-Fi
stereo audio tracks. These stereo tracks allow you to
make audio recordings in Hi-Fi stereo or bilingual mode
from a TV broadcast, stereo audio system, video disc or
another Hi-Fi VCR.

Your DVD/CD/VCR receiver’s NICAM digital
