Searching Techniques
Your VCR lets you search through a tape in a number of ways. These include:
Quick search (CM skip) -- 30 second intervals
Speed search -- visually search
Counter zero stop -- direct to start of recording
Index search -- find specific index points
Quick search (CM skip)
Quick search lets you skip over the tape you are playing in about 30 second
intervals. It is designed so that you can quickly speed through any commercials
you may have recorded. To do this:
1
Make sure that you have set the VCR/TV slide switch on the remote
control to the VCR position.
2
While playing a tape, choose the desired search time by pressing a number
button.
The VCR will speed through the selected length of tape, then resume playback.
This screen will show the search time and the gauge. Each mark on the gauge
represents 15 seconds. The marks will disappear, one by one, every 15 seconds
of the search time. You can select a search time up to 3 minutes.
Speed search
Use speed search to visually search through the contents of a videotape.
1
While playing a tape, press FF or REW on the front panel or on the
remote control. You will see the picture as it fast forwards or rewinds.
Noise bars may appear in the pictures.
2
If you press FF or REW and hold it down for about 1 second, the search
speed will increase.
3
To resume normal playback, press FF or REW again quickly, or press PLAY.
IMPORTANT
IMPORTANT
The fastest search speed that allows you to see the picture is about 30
times normal speed. It is normal for the number of noise bars on the
screen to increase and roll from top to bottom as the visual search speed
increases. Using speed search for long stretches of tape may cause the
video heads to become dirty faster.
The fastest way to move through the tape is without a picture, which
allows you to search up to 450 times normal speed. To do this, press
STOP, then FF or REW. If you press and hold FF or REW for more than 2
seconds, the search speed will slow to 330 times normal speed.
In order to protect your tapes and the VCR heads, the Fast Forwarding/
Rewinding Speed will be slower than 450x under the following
conditions:
1 Use of tapes shorter in length than T-120 (for example, T-30, T-60, T-90).
2 Activating fast forwarding or rewinding from the middle of the tape.
