Additional Operation with tape

Hi-Fi Stereo Sound System (NIC)

Your DVD+VCR will record and playback Hi-Fi stereo
sound. In addition it has a stereo NICAM digital
stereo sound decoder. This allows you to record and
playback the sound in several different ways. Video
cassettes recorded on your DVD+VCR will have a
normal mono audio track and two VHS Hi-Fi stereo
audio tracks. These stereo tracks allow you to make
audio recordings in Hi-Fi stereo or bilingual mode
from a TV broadcast, stereo audio system, video disc
or another Hi-Fi VCR.

Your DVD+VCR's NICAM digital sound decoder
allows you to enjoy broadcasts with NICAM
sound, as well as standard stereo, bilingual and
mono sound. The particular type of sound
received or that recorded will be briefly displayed
on the TV screen for a couple of seconds:
STEREO NICAM
Sound is automatically recorded on the Hi-Fi
stereo and mono tracks of the video tape.
BIL NICAM
Both audio channels will be recorded on the Hi-Fi
stereo tracks. The primary language channel (left)
will be recorded on the mono track of the video
tape.
MONO
The sound is recorded on the Hi-Fi tracks and the
mono track of the video tape without any separa-
tion.

right channel when audio output is set to
STEREO. The primary language will be output
from both channels when the audio setting is

Please note that when adjusting the tracking con-
trol Hi-Fi stereo sound may revert to MONO.
