About the SmartFile function
SmartFile* allows you to view the contents of your video tape (recording
date, channel, etc.) on the TV screen. It is no longer necessary to rewind,
fast-forward, or play back a tape to find out what is recorded. You can also
locate and start playback of a specific program, or find the position from
which you want to start recording by using this list. Program data is stored
in the memory of the SmartFile label attached to the tape.
The following functions are possible using SmartFile:
Recording using the SmartFile
function (page 44)
To use the SmartFile function, attach the
SmartFile label to the tape. If you record a
program on a tape with a SmartFile label, the
contents will appear on the SmartFile search list.
With the SmartFile list, you can also easily find
the beginning of the available recording space.
Selecting and playing a program (page 53)
To play back a recorded program, select the program you want to watch
using the SmartFile search list. The VCR locates the program and playback
starts automatically.
Checking the contents of a tape
(page 55)
When you bring the SmartFile label close to the
SMARTFILE sensor on the VCR, a summary of
the recorded programs appears in the SmartFile
check list. It is not necessary to insert the tape
into the VCR and press
H
PLAY to find out
what is recorded on it. This feature allows you
to easily find the program you want to watch, or
to quickly find a tape with enough recording
space.

SmartFile Function
Labeling a recorded program and tape (page 56)
You can attach an electronic “label” to the video tape and it’s programs on
the SmartFile list. Labeling the recorded programs enables you to find a
program easily when you want to play it back. Also, once you label a
program which you set to record regularly (i.e. everyday, same day of a
week, etc.), the VCR recognizes the label and will automatically label all
future recordings of the same program.
Protecting a recorded program (page 61)
You can protect a recorded program from accidental over-recording or
erasure.
Erasing the data of an unwanted program (page 63)
By erasing a program from the SmartFile list, the VCR will record over the
unwanted program.
Registering the contents of a recorded tape in the
SmartFile label (page 65)
You can register programs recorded on a tape in the memory of a new
SmartFile label.
Storing program data from the DIRECTV digital
satellite receiver (Program Data Download) (page 67)
If you connect a DIRECTV digital satellite receiver equipped with the
Program Data Download function, you can store the program and category
name transmitted from the DIRECTV digital satellite receiver on a SmartFile
tape. The DIRECTV digital satellite receiver equipped with the Program
Data Download function will be available in the future.
