Advanced functions on your Video Recorder
Your Video recorder has some advanced operations with features you may find useful.

CM (Commercial
Message) Skip
This enables you to skip past small
sections of the video tape, such as
commercial messages, television
adverts or film trailers.
Press the CM SKIP button on the
remote control, during play.
Each subsequent press of the button
increases the amount of the tape
which is skipped by 30 seconds, up
to a total of three minutes
(180 seconds).
After the chosen time has passed
normal play will automatically resume.
OPR (Optimum Picture
Response)
This enhances the picture from the
video tape by adjusting to the

that the picture needs adjusting you
can manually change the OPR
setting.
You can only set OPR when a tape is
