video is distorted or the colours
are abnormal.

≥Copy-protected material was dubbed.

Copy-protected materials cannot be recorded normally.
Most commercially available videotapes and DVD discs (including rental soft tapes/DVDs)
are copy-protected so that illegal dubbing is impossible.

If the audio in particular parts, such as speech, is set to a low or high level, it may be
recorded on a video cassette at a high or low level, respectively.
