Hi-Fi Stereo Sound System

Your DVD/VCR Receiver will record and play back
Hi-Fi stereo sound. In addition it has a NICAM digital
stereo sound decoder. This allows you to record and
play back the sound in several different ways. Video
cassettes recorded on your DVD/VCR Receiver will
have a normal mono audio track and two VHS Hi-Fi
stereo audio tracks. These stereo tracks allow you to
make audio recordings in Hi-Fi stereo or bilingual mode
from a TV broadcast, stereo audio system, video disc or
another Hi-Fi VIDEO.
Your DVD/VCR Receiver's NICAM digital sound
1 1
decoder allows you to enjoy broadcasts with
NICAM sound, as well as standard stereo
NICAM, bilingual and mono sound.
The particular type of sound received or that
recorded will be briefly displayed on the TV screen
for a couple of seconds:
STEREO
Sound is automatically recorded on the Hi-Fi stereo
and mono tracks of the video tape.
BIL NICAM
Both audio channels will be recorded on the Hi-Fi
stereo tracks. The primary language channel (left) will
be recorded on the mono track of the video tape.
MONO
The sound is recorded on the Hi-Fi tracks and the
mono track of the video tape without any separation.
STEREO
Press AUDIO repeatedly until the desired audio
2 2
mode appears.
The choice is STEREO, LEFT (left channel),
RIGHT (right channel) and MONO.
In BIL NICAM playback the primary language is
output on the left channel and the secondary lan-
guage is output simultaneously from the right chan-
nel when audio output is set to STEREO.
The primary language will be output from both
channels when the audio setting is MONO.
Please note that when adjusting the tracking control
Hi-Fi stereo sound may revert to MONO.
Note
If the quality of stereo sound being received is poor,
the broadcast is automatically received in monaural
with better quality.
Still, if the quality of the sound is poor, set NIC in
the main menu to OFF (see page 15). NICAM broad-
casts will be detected.
