Auto speed programming
Use auto speed programming if you want to record as much of the
program as possible in standard play (SP) speed, but you want the
VCR to automatically switch to extended play (EP) if there is 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
on page 27.
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.
Program caution
If your VCR is set to record, but the power is still ON within 3
minutes before timer recording starts, this screen will appear to
remind you to turn off the VCR.
If the VCR is still turned on 12 seconds before the start time of the
recording, that timer recording will be cancelled.
TV programs that end on the day after
If you want to start the recording at 11:00 PM and end it at 2:00 AM
the next day, simply set the start time to 11:00 PM on the recording
start day and the end time to 2:00 AM. There is no need to change
the day of the week.
Program skip using menus
Sometimes you may want to skip one day of a timer recording but
do not want to erase it. Program skip will prevent the recording, for
that day only, of a program you have scheduled to record every
day or every week.
