About the LP Mode
Recording and playback quality in the LP mode
is easily affected by the condition of the tape
and the environment of use. Mosaic-like noise
may appear in the playback picture and the
sound may drop out at times, etc. The picture
may also be disturbed at the transient sections
between scenes.
