Advance Recording Feature continued
VPS/PDC Default
Programme VPS/PDC is a system of telling the VTR when a programme actually starts. Typically, when you want to record a programme you will tell the VTR to start recording, probably, five minutes before the advertised starting time of the programme and to finish ten minutes or so after the programme is due to finish. So even if the programme starts early or finishes late you will normally still get to see what you wanted to record. However when live programmes over-run or the day�s television schedule is changed from that

When noise bars or streaks appear during playback, adjust alignment manually by pressing the CH/TRK (i or j) buttons until the picture is clear and stable. Result : The tracking bar appears. The image is adjusted. The tracking bar disappears when you release the button. As each VTR is different, slight adjustments need to be made in the way the tape is read. This is called �Tracking�. When playback starts the video recorder automatically adjusts the Tracking to obtain the best possible picture and sound; Digital Auto Tracking. The �AUTO� indicator will flash while this adjustment takes place and the playback picture and sound may be distorted. The VTR will automatically adjust the Tracking as best it can. If you playback rented tapes or tapes recorded on other machines, you may occasionally find that the Digital Auto Tracking is not able to improve the picture sufficiently. In these instances you will need to adjust the Tracking manually. With a tape in and playing, hold down either the CH/TRK (i or j) button on the remote control until the best possible picture and sound is obtained If the tape is old or worm, it may be impossible to improve the picture performance. if you press the PAUSE/STILL button the image may shimmer. This can also be reduced by adjusting the Tracking.
