VCR Recording
Before Recording
Before you start recording…
• This VCR records in VHS format.
• Check that the tape is longer than the recording
time (page 77).
Notes
• Timer recordings cannot be made if the recorder is
turned on (page 81). The recorder automatically turns
off after a recording has finished.
• This recorder shares a single tuner for both the DVD
recorder and the VCR. You cannot record different
programs to a DVD and a VHS tape at the same time.
• This recorder has the copy guard function. Programmes
that contain a Copy-Never copy guard signal cannot be
correctly recorded on the VCR.
To save a recording
To prevent accidental erasure, break off the safety
tab as illustrated. To record on the tape again,
cover the tab hole with adhesive tape.
Recording mode
“LP” (Long Play) or “SP” (Standard Play) is
available for recording mode (tape speed). “LP”
provides recording time twice as long as “SP.”
However, “SP” produces better picture and audio
quality.
Maximum recording time
Notes
• Tapes recorded in LP (×2) mode by this VCR cannot be
played back on VHS video decks with SP mode only.
• Noise may appear in the image when tapes recorded in
LP mode by this VCR are played back on other VHS
video decks with LP mode.
Recording stereo and bilingual
programmes
The recorder automatically receives and records
stereo and bilingual programmes based on the
NICAM system.
You can switch between main and sub sounds
while playing a tape (page 77).
NICAM system
When a stereo or bilingual NICAM based
programme is received, “STEREO” and
“NICAM” appear in the front panel display.
To record a NICAM programme, be sure to set
“Manual Set” – “Tuner Audio” to “NICAM”
(default) in the “Tuner Preset” setup (page 100). If
the sound is not clear when listening to NICAM
broadcasts, select “Standard.”

Hint
You can select the audio (main or sub) while recording
bilingual programmes using the AUDIO button. This
does not affect the recorded sound.
