When VHS playback is stopped, press the SEARCH/IDX button to
display a list of search options. The DVD+VCR uses the VISS (VHS
Search Menu
Index Search System) standard to locate index marks placed at the
start of all video recordings. This system may not recognize index
marks made by old VCRs. If the VCR has trouble finding a mark, it
is probably because the cassette was recorded on a VCR without
VISS. If you want to index two programs in a row, set your VCR to
Stop mode, then start recording the next program. PAUSE has no
effect on index marks.
NOTE:
1 Return to (0:00:00)

0:00:00 on your videotape. To set the counter to 0:00:00, press the

automatically rewind or fast forward to 0:00:00 and then stop at
that position.
2 Blank Search
