Switching over audio recording
(2channel sound)
Some TV programmes transmit an extra audio signal in stereo in addition to the normal audio
signal (2-channel sound). In most cases this means that an additional language is available. If a TV
programme is available in, say, English and German, German may be available as the second
language.
To record TV programmes in stereo or 2-channel sound you can select Stereo or the language
you want as the default setting. This setting does not become active until the sound of a TV
programme is transmitted in 2-channel sound.
When you play back the recording you can play back the sound only in the language you used
for the recording.
