:: Search Features

Index Marks are like bookmarks on your VHS tapes that help you easily find the start of any recording. Index Marks are inserted

automatically during standard recording, one-touch recording, timer recording, or copying. You can also place Index Marks manu-

ally anywhere on a tape by pressing the SEARCH/IDX button while a recording is in progress. Later you can search or scan for

these bookmarks in the Search Menu.

To search or scan for specific recordings:

Insert a VHS tape with recorded material in the VCR deck.

•

If the tape is missing the record safety tab, please see MOVIE

ADVANCE on page 51.

While the tape is stopped or playing, press SEARCH/IDX.

Press

and

to select Index Search/Scan:

Index Scan

Press FF or REWIND to begin scanning forward or back-

ward. When an Index Mark is found, the tape will play for 5 seconds. If it is

the scene you want, press PLAY/PAUSE. If it is not, the DVD+VCR will automatically search for the next Index Mark.

Index Search

Enter an Index number from 1 to 99 (e.g., for 5 press 0-5), then press FF or REWIND to begin searching for-

ward or backward. When the VCR locates the specified Index Mark, it will play the tape.

• Use the Date/Time Stamp with Index Scan to make it even eas-

ier to find Timer Recordings on your tapes. For example, when

Index Scan stops at an Index Mark, you will see the date and

time the show was recorded.

• VISS, or VHS Index Search System is the VHS standard for

indexing tapes and is compatible with tapes made on other

VCRs and camcorders using the VISS system.
