Quick Set Recording (QSR)
Your VCR allows you to make recordings using a
variety of simple methods:
Quick Set Recording (QSR) start recording imme-
diately for a set period of time or until the video
cassette runs out.
Your VCR incorporates Long Play (LP) which
enables you to record up to twice the amount of
time on a video cassette. For example an E-180 will
record up to 180 minutes using Standard Play (SP);
using LP you will be able to record up to 360 minutes.

sound quality when using LP.
