Glossary
AFT: Automatic fine tuning, a circuit that automatically
adjusts TV reception to optimum condition.
CABLE: Cable television.
EP: Extended play, the slowest recording speed. Designed
to store the maximum amount of program material on a
single video cassette. There is some degradation in
picture/audio quality.
Index Search: A feature of this VCR that automatically
records an index each time recording begins. It helps you
locate a particular segment of the tape quickly and easily.
LP: Long Play, an intermediate tape recording speed that
combines most of the picture/audio quality obtainable at
the standard recording speed with some of the tape
economy of Extended Play (EP).
OSD: On-screen display of information pertinent to the
features of the VCR.
OTR: One-touch recording, a feature that allows you to
record the program you’re watching by pressing the REC
key. Each press of the key increases the recording time
by 30 minutes, up to four hours.
RF: Radio frequency, the composite audio/video signal
supplied to a TV receiver (or other video component) by
an antenna or cable system.
Safety tab: The plastic tab at the back of a video tape
cassette which, when removed, prevents accidental
erasure of a recording.
SP: Standard play, the recording speed to use when the
best picture quality is of prime importance (and when
total recording time is not).
