Recording a Program

Your VCR provides different recording features.  The following sections describe these features.

Recording Speeds

Press 

SPEED

on the remote to select a recording speed (SP, LP, or EP).  The speed you select appears on the TV screen.

Types of Recordings

SP (Standard Play)

gives the best quality recording.  This is why most prerecorded, rental

tapes are recorded in SP.  Fewer programs can be recorded on the tape.  Special effects such
as pause, frame advance, slow motion, and picture search work well in this speed.

LP (Long Play)

gives twice the recording time of tapes recorded in SP.  Special effects in

playback are not recommended in LP.

EP (Extended Play)

gives three times the recording time of tapes recorded in SP.  Special

effects such as pause, frame advance, slow motion, and picture search work well in this
speed.

Recording Pause

This feature allows you to prevent recording short passages of unwanted material.  

Press 

PAUSE 

on the remote during recording to stop and start recording.

The VCR automatically switches from pause to stop after a few minutes.
