COLOUR SYSTEM
PAL/NTSC
MESECAM
You can play back PAL, NTSC and MESECAM tapes, or record PAL and SECAM* signals on this recorder.
Select the appropriate colour system.
PAL/NTSC : To record PAL signals, or play back a PAL or NTSC tape.
MESECAM : To record SECAM signals, or play back a MESECAM tape.
* SECAM signals will be recorded as MESECAM on this recorder; MESECAM is the designation for tapes
with SECAM signals that have been recorded on a MESECAM-compatible PAL video cassette recorder.
NOTES:
● It is not possible to record in S-VHS if “MESECAM” is selected. The recording mode is forced to change
to VHS.
About NTSC Playback
● Some TVs shrink the picture vertically and place black bars at the top and bottom of the TV screen. This
is not a malfunction on the part of either the video recorder or the TV.
● The picture may roll up and down. This can be corrected using the V-HOLD control found on some
TVs. (This cannot be corrected if the TV does not have a V-HOLD control.)
● The counter and tape remaining time readings will be incorrect.
● During search, still, or frame-by-frame playback, the picture will be distorted, and there may be a loss of
colour.
● Depending on the type of TV, the top and bottom portions of superimposed displays may be cut off
during NTSC playback.
