About NTSC Playback
Some TVs shrink the picture vertically and place black bars at
the top and bottom of the TV screen. This is not a malfunction
on the part of either the video recorder or the TV.
The picture may roll up and down. This can be corrected using
the V-HOLD control found on some TVs. (This cannot be
corrected if the TV does not have a V-HOLD control.)
The counter and tape remaining time readings will be incorrect.
During search, still, or frame-by-frame playback, the picture will
be distorted, and there may be a loss of colour.
Depending on the type of TV, the top and bottom portions of
superimposed displays may be cut off during NTSC playback.
