Tape Operation - Panasonic PV-VS4821-K Operating Instructions Manual

Tape Operation

detects and marks the beginning and
end points of commercials on your tape for recordings over 15
minutes in length. When a
tape is played back, the VCR automatically advances through the
commercial segments at high speed. You can also set this feature
to Manual so as to have more control over the advance process.
The effectiveness of this system can vary due to differences in the
way television stations broadcast. See page 32 for answers to the
most commonly asked questions about this feature.
When C/A RECORD: ON, VCR automatically rewinds the
tape after a recording has been made and marks the
beginning and end of any detected commercial blocks.
After marking is done, the tape is returned to the end of the
recording. Commercials are not erased from the tape.
