With the Video Programming via

Teletext (VPT) function in the video

tape recorder, you can use Teletext

TV listings when you preset Avant for

recording of future programmes. You

can also preset a Timer recording

manually.

If PDC/VPS (Program Delivery Control/

Video Programming System) signals

are broadcast by the current channel,

you can make sure that the

programme is recorded in full*, even

if the broadcast time is changed by

the broadcaster.

You can preset as many as eight

future recordings. You can also check

the status of all your pending

recordings by bringing up a list on

the screen.

You can, of course, start recording

the current programme immediately.

The video tape recorder will continue

recording until the tape runs out,

unless you give other instructions.
