Receiving Stereo and Bilingual
Programmes
Your unit is equipped a Digital stereo sound decoder (NICAM)
making reception of stereo and bilingual broadcasts possible.
When the channel is changed, the type of broadcast being
received will be displayed on the TV screen for a few seconds.
● To listen to a stereo programme, press A.MONITOR until
“HIFI L jhR” appears on the TV screen.
● To listen to a bilingual programme, press A.MONITOR until
“HIFI L j” or “HIFI h R” appears on the TV screen.
● To listen to the standard (Regular Monaural) audio while
receiving a NICAM broadcast, press A.MONITOR until
“NORM” appears on the TV screen.
NOTE:
“O.S.D.” must be set to “ON”, or the on-screen displays will not
appear. (
墌 pg. 65)
To Record NICAM Stereo and Bilingual Programmes
The NICAM audio programme will be recorded on the Hi-Fi
audio track, and the standard audio programme will be recorded
on the normal audio track.
NOTES:
● If the quality of stereo sound being received is poor, the
broadcast will be received in monaural with better quality.
● Before playing back a programme recorded in stereo, or a
bilingual programme, refer to “Soundtrack Selection” on
page 20.
B.E.S.T. Picture System
The B.E.S.T. (Biconditional Equalised Signal Tracking)
system checks the condition of the tape in use during
playback and recording, and compensates to provide the
highest-possible playback and recording pictures. You
can set “B.E.S.T.” to “ON” or “OFF” to your preference.
(
墌 pg. 65)
Playback
The unit assesses the quality of the tape once you initiate
playback.
● The unit adjusts the playback picture quality based on the
quality of the tape in use.
● B.E.S.T. is active during automatic tracking. “BEST” appears
blinking on the front display panel.
● “BEST” only appears at the beginning of automatic tracking.
Even though it doesn’t appear after that, the B.E.S.T. function is
operative.
Recording
The unit assesses the quality of the tape once you initiate
recording.
● The unit spends approximately 7 seconds assessing the
condition of the tape, then begins recording.

ATTENTION
Since the B.E.S.T. system works before recording actually
starts, there is a delay of approximately 7 seconds after 7
and 4 on the remote control are pressed, or 7 on the unit is
pressed. To make sure you record the desired scene or
programme in its entirety, first perform the following steps:
A Press and hold 9 and press 7 to engage the Record Pause
mode.
● The unit then automatically checks the condition of the
tape and, after approximately 7 seconds, re-enters Record
Pause mode.
B Press 4 to start recording.
If you want to bypass the B.E.S.T. system and begin recording
immediately, set “B.E.S.T.” to “OFF”.
