PLAYBACK Adjusting the tracking When playback starts, the VCR automatically adjusts the tracking for clear pictures and sound (Digital Auto Tracking). The "DT" indicator blinks during the adjusting. If the VCR cannot locate the best possible tracking point, hold down one of CH/TRK to adjust the tracking manually. • To resume the digital auto tracking, hold down both CHANNEL on the VCR simultaneously for about 2 seconds. Notes • During the adjusting, the playback picture and sound may be distorted. • The digital auto tracking is activated only in the playback mode. • To reset the manual tracking point to the center, press both CHANNEL on the VCR simultaneously for not longer than 1 second. • The noise on the screen may not be completely eliminated depending on the tape used, especially when the tape was recorded on another VCR. DNR (Digital Noise Reduction) (For W-808 only) The noise reduction function of this VCR is based on a digital signals system utilizing memory. It is effective in the playback of noisy tapes as well as S-VIDEO and RF in video signal. Furthermore the CSE (Color Signal Enhancement) circuit, which is included in the system, compensates for color signal weakness and gives the best possible color. Thanks to this circuit color distortion is reduced and a sharp picture is played back. Press DNR repeatedly to select the following: DnR On: DnR OFF: Usually set to "On". The "DnR On" will appear on the TV screen and you can view the picture with less noise. This function will not work. Notes • The DNR playback is available only in the playback mode. • Depending on the recorded picture, for example too vivid or too noisy, you may not notice a reduction in the noise. • The noise reduction may not work on pictures recorded from special equipment such as TV game machines or computers. • The picture sharpness can be changed by full screen OSD setting.
