Panasonic NV-F65EA Operating Instructions Manual page 21

The following may happen except during Slow and
Normal playback in forward direction.
Still and Slow Playback
• Depending on the TV set used, it may not be possible to
obtain a proper picture during Still and Slow playback.
• If the TV set is equipped with an automatic vertical hold
control, the picture may shake vertically. In this case, set
the TV set's vertical hold (AUTO/MANUAL) selector to the
"MANUAL" position, and adjust its vertical hold control.
• When changing over from Review Search to Still play¬
back, the picture will reverse by a few frames approx.
2 seconds later.
Slow Tracking Control
•When noise bars appear during Still, Still Advance or Slow
playback, switch over to slow playback and adjust with the
Tracking "+"or Button to reduce the noise bars.
• It may not be possible to eliminate the noise bars
completely.

~—~——■— -------.
•The sound will be played back only during normal
playback.
• If you leave the VTR in the still playback mode for
more than 5 minutes, the VTR will automatically
switch over to the Stop mode to protect the tape and
the video heads.
• Immediately after starting Cue or Review playback,
the picture may be distorted. Also, when these
modes are cancelled, some momentary picture
distortion may occur. However, this is not due to any
malfunction.
• Noise which takes the form of horizontal bars
appears on the TV in the Cue and Review playback
modes. This is not an indication of a malfunction.
•The top of the picture may become distorted in the
Cue, Review or Super Still (LP) mode. This is not an
indication of a malfunction.
•When the picture rolls vertically in the Cue or
Review mode, adjust the vertical hold control on the
TV set.
• In "LP" mode only:
1. During any playback mode other than normal
playback, the picture may have some noise bars,
the colour may be unstable, or a black and white
picture may appear.
2. When playing back a tape which was recorded
on another VTR, it may be necessary to adjust
the Tracking Control. In some cases the picture
quality may still be inferior. This is due to limita¬
tion of format.
