Commercial Advance finds and marks commercial breaks in the broadcast
when you make tape recordings of at least 15 minutes long of TV programs
using this TV/VCR. When the recording is complete, the tape is rewound
and the commercials breaks are “marked”; this process takes a few minutes
to complete and the “Marking” message is displayed. When marking is com-
plete, the message disappears. Then, when the tape is played back, com-
mercial breaks are skipped over automatically. (If you want to watch the
commercials, when the “Commercials Marking” message is displayed on the
screen, press PLAY; commercial breaks will be shown during playback.)
Commercial Advance Menu Options
Marking: On or Off. On, will mark the recorded tape after recording is over
for commercial breaks.
Playback: Auto or Manual. Will rewind and play the tape automatically if
”Auto” is selected.
Auto/Manual Skip: Allows user to manually skip over commercials as a tape
is being played back; if the “Playback” option is on the “Manual” setting
prior to tape recording. User presses CA to advance tape and fast forward
past commercials manually.
Blueback: (Blue background) On or Off. If On, shows a blue background,
instead of the picture as the tape is fast forwarded past commercial breaks.
