may roll and be
unwatchable. However, if you use a TV with a V-HOID control, you can stop the
rolling by adjusting the V-HOLD control and watch the picture.
»Horizontal noise bars may appear on ttie screen during

(video search, still, slow, frame advance and double speed playback), possibly
accompanied by discolouring.

connected to the AUDIO OUT and VIDEO OUT terminals
of this product. Tapes recorded in this way cannot
be
played back on PAL system VCRs,
