and to play pictures over a longer peri-
od, S-VHS recording on S-VHS tape is

easily distinguish them from regular
VHS recordings.

played on an S-VHS VCR or a VHS VCR
equipped with SQPB (S-VHS QUASI
PLAYBACK). However, there may be
cases where S-VHS ET playback is not
possible on a particular VCR.
• Frequent still, frame-by-frame, and slow
motion playback may damage the
tape and cause the picture quality to
decline.
• With some tapes, better picture quality
may not be obtained even with S-VHS
ET recording.Test a recording first to
make sure better results can be
obtained.
• Use high grade tapes for good results.
