Your title directory is always at hand because all the required
information is stored in the recorder.
If you programme a recording, titles and information provi-
ded with programmes when they are broadcast are automati-
cally copied into the archive system. The only requirement is
that television stations whose programmes you want to
record broadcast Teletext.
If you manually start a recording, all data are copied into the
archive system, and you merely need enter the title of the
broadcast afterward.
Previous recordings can also be entered in the archive
system.
You can quickly search your archive for titles, key words and
categories, intert the cassette with the found title, and start
playback with the push of a button.
An overview of the remaining playing time of all the archived
cassettes allows you to quickly find a cassette with enough
recording time for a new recording.

TELE-VIDEO
set becomes suitable for Teletext operation.
Teletext information can easily be called up by
means of the remote control.
