SmartFile Function About the SmartFile function SmartFile* allows you to view the contents of your video tape (recording date, channel, etc.) on the TV screen. It is no longer necessary to rewind, fast-forward, or play back a tape to find out what is recorded. You can also locate and start playback of a specific program, or find the position from which you want to start recording by using this list. Program data is stored in the memory of the SmartFile label attached to the tape. The following functions are possible using SmartFile: Recording using the SmartFile function (page 41) To use the SmartFile function, attach the SmartFile label to the tape. If you record a program on a tape with a SmartFile label, the contents will appear on the SmartFile search list. With the SmartFile list, you can also easily find the beginning of the available recording space.
