Auto Tape Speed Select
The VCR’s “Auto Tape Speed Select” function compares
the duration of the timer recording to the actual recording
time remaining on the tape loaded. If there is insufficient
tape to complete a timer recording in AUTO mode, the
VCR automatically switches to LP mode to record the
whole programme.
E.g.
If there is a one hour AUTO mode timer recording
to be started, but only 40 minutes of tape
remaining, the VCR will record in SP for 20
minutes and switch to LP mode for the remaining
40 minutes.
