Labelling a recorded programme and tape (continued)
Notes
• In step 4 above, enter "000" if you don't want to use the TV guide page number for automatic
labelling. The VCR will then store default data (date, programme position, duration etc.) in
the label.
• Refer to the Teletext information on your TV screen to get the TV guide page number with
the programme titles and their start times.
• If the Teletext TV guide has a page which always shows the programmes for the current day,
this page should be input for all days.
• If you start recording more than two minutes before the programme is scheduled to start, the
correct label information may not be transferred. The VCR receives the label information two
minutes after the recording starts. This is to assure that the programmes' information is
correctly recorded even if you start recording before the programme actually begins.
• If you set a timer recording with VPS/PDC OFF, the title information will be transferred in
the middle of the recording.
• Note that this function may not work correctly with programmes broadcast from some
stations.
• When the recording starts and if at that moment the Broadcast system updates the Teletext
information, the title on the label may not correspond to the one of the recorded programme.
In this case, you may have to manually enter the correct title using the SMARTFILE EDIT
menu.
• You cannot get the label information from the sources through the LINE input or the satellite
channels.
