Notes
• Video Programme System (VPS)
The Video Programme System (VPS) ensures that
the TV programmes that you have programmed for
timer recording will be recorded exactly from their
beginning to end, even if the actual broadcasting
time differs from the scheduled time due to delayed
start, or if the programme is extended beyond its
scheduled time. Also, if a programme is interrupted,
for example, if a news flash is inserted, the record-
ing will also be interrupted automatically and
resumed when the programme continues.
The VPS signal is broadcast by the TV station and
this controls the timer in the video recorder.
VPS should be set ON for all timer recordings from
TV stations broadcasting these signals. It should be
set OFF for all timer recordings from TV stations that
are not broadcasting these signals.
