Additional tasks
To set the colour system
If the playback picture has no colour, or streaks appear during playback, set
COLOUR SYSTEM in the OPTIONS-1 menu to conform to the system that the tape
was recorded in (see page 79). (Normally set the option to AUTO.)
To play an NTSC-recorded tape
Set NTSC PB at the rear of the VCR according to the colour system of your TV.
To use the time counter
Press CLEAR at the point on the tape that you want to find later. The counter in the
display window resets to “0:00:00.” Search for the point afterwards by referring to
the counter.
