Auto Speed
Programming
Use auto speed programming if you want to record as much of
the program as possible in standard play (SP) mode, but you
want the VCR to automatically switch to extended play (EP) if
there’s not enough tape left.
Auto speed programming is only available for one program. In
the first slot, the recording speed default is AUTO.
Make sure that the Tape video function matches the length of
tape you are using. See
Selecting and adjusting the audio
and video functions
section of this manual.
At the point where the recording mode changes from standard
play (SP) to extended play (EP), some noise may be in the
picture or sound when playing the tape.

If the VCR is still turned on 12 seconds before the start time of
