Recording Mode Auto Change Function

If a timer recording is performed in SP mode, this function
automatically changes the recording mode if the unit determines
that the remaining tape time is insufficient to record the entire
programme.
If the remaining tape time is still not sufficient even in LP/EP mode,
the programme cannot be recorded to the end.

The recording mode will change as follows:
PAL system:

SP

# LP

NTSC system:

SP

# EP

≥This function cannot change the recording speed to the EP mode

for PAL system.

e.g. NTSC system (when using a 60-min tape)

≥The tape length must be set correctly (

l 21).

≥Some tapes may not work correctly.
≥If the recording speed changes during a timer recording, some

picture distortion will occur at the point the speed changes.
