Recording
The recorder assesses the quality of the tape once you initiate recording.
DURING B.E.S.T.
B.E.S.T. COMPLETE
Playback
The recorder assesses the quality of the tape once you initiate playback.
● The recorder adjusts the playback picture quality based on the quality of the tape in use.
● B.E.S.T. is active during Auto Tracking. “BEST” appears blinking on the recorder’s front display panel.
NOTES:
● When watching a tape recorded with “B.E.S.T.” set to “ON”, it is recommended that you leave B.E.S.T. on during playback as well.
● When watching a rental tape or one recorded on another video recorder, or when using this recorder as the player for editing, set B.E.S.T. to your preference (
墌 pg. 45).
● “BEST” only appears at the beginning of automatic tracking.
Even though it doesn’t appear after that, the B.E.S.T. function is operative.
● The recorder spends approximately 7 seconds assessing the condition of the tape, then begins recording.
NOTES:
● The B.E.S.T. system works for both SP and LP modes only after a tape has been inserted and the Record mode is first initiated.
It does not work during recording.
● The B.E.S.T. system does not work while Automatic Satellite
Programme Recording is in progress (
墌 pg. 34).
● In the case of timer recordings, the B.E.S.T. system works before recording is initiated.
● Once the cassette is ejected, the B.E.S.T. data is cancelled. The next time the cassette is used for recording, B.E.S.T. is re-performed.
● Pressing the recorder’s 7
button while “BEST” is displayed does not start Instant Timer Recording (
墌 pg. 24).
ATTENTION
Since the B.E.S.T. system works before recording actually starts, there is a delay of approximately 7 seconds after
7 and
4
on the remote control are pressed, or
7
on the recorder is pressed. To make sure you record the desired scene or programme in its entirety, first perform the following steps:
A Press and hold 9
and press
7
to engage the Record
Pause mode.
● The recorder then automatically checks the condition of the tape and, after approximately 7 seconds, re-enters
Record Pause.
B Press 4
to start recording.
If you want to bypass the B.E.S.T. system and begin recording immediately, set “B.E.S.T.” to “OFF” (
墌 pg. 45).

Satellite Receiver Users
To timer-record a satellite broadcast using Express Timer
Programming:

VPS/PDC Recording
Now available from some TV stations, PDC (Programme
Delivery Control) and VPS (Video Programme System) are service designed to assure safe, accurate timer recording.
With this system, special code signals are transmitted together with the audio/video signals. These code signals control your video recorder and have precedence over the advertised times you may have preset into the timer. This means that your recorder will start and stop recording when the preset TV programmes actually start and end — even if the broadcast time of a preset TV programme is changed.
NOTES:
● When you use Express Timer Programming, set the start time (VPS or PDC time) exactly as advertised in the TV listing. A different time than advertised will result in no recording.
● VPS/PDC recording is also possible when a satellite receiver or a cable system is connected to AV2 (L-2) IN/
DECODER on your recorder.
● VPS/PDC recording is also possible via the AV1 (L-1) IN/
OUT connector.
How to check if the station being received transmits a
VPS/PDC signal
A Press – –:– – until the channel position appears on the front display panel.
B Hold down START+ for about 5 seconds.
“VPS/PDC” appears blinking on the front display panel.
If a VPS/PDC signal is detected from the station, “VPS/

If no VPS/PDC signal is detected from the station, “VPS/
PDC” will blink at a slower rate.
