Product Highlights
• Digital Studio Picture Control
Digital Studio Picture Control keeps checking the quality of your videotapes
and reproduces the best possible picture performance. Philips’ Digital
Studio Picture Control optimises the playback quality. It measures the
characteristics of the tape, adapts the resolution and reduces the picture
noise.
• Automatic Satellite Recording
You want to record a programme from your satellite receiver or any other
external device when you’re not at home, or while you watch another
programme at the same time? And you want to set your receiver to come on
at a specific time?
Just activate the “RECORD PREPARED MODE”, put the set in standby
and programme the desired timer on your satellite receiver – and upon
activation of the satellite receiver, the set will start the recording
simultaneously.
