     Playback
    When playing back a recording which has been
    marked using the  feature, you
    can either set VCR to automatically advance through
    marked commercial blocks, or set it so that
    commercials are only skipped on your command.
    AUTO :VCR will automatically advance through
    marked commercial blocks recorded on the
    tape and then resume playback.
    MANUAL :VCR will advance through commercials only
    when CA/ZERO is pressed. Playback will
    resume when the end mark of a commercial
    block is found, or a new recording or blank
    portion is detected, or after 8 minutes.
    The selection mode in step 3 remains set unless there is a power outage in which case the
    original factory setting will be restored.
    If playback is started in the middle of a commercial, only a single commercial is shown, or an
    individual commercial is longer than 1 minute, the commercial may not be skipped.
    Press FF to quickly advance through the commercial.
    Part of a recorded program may be skipped over if the program portion between commercials
    is less than 1 minute or there are frequent dark and quiet scenes during the program. To view
    the portion of tape being incorrectly skipped, press PLAY while the VCR is skipping, reverse
    the tape to a point just prior to where the skipping began and press PLAY again. This time the
    group will not be automatically skipped. Automatic skipping will be re-enabled when the end of
    the marked group is detected.

    The most commonly asked questions about  are answered below.
    Question
    How fast does the VCR advance
    through commercials?
    Are commercials advanced through only
    when I playback a recording?
    Are commercials still recorded on the
    tape in case I choose to view them
    sometime?
    Does 
     work in
    all recording speeds?
    Does the VCR advance through
    commercials each time I playback tapes
    which were recorded using
    ?
    After marking commercials, does the
    VCR stop at the end of the tape, or
    rewind to the beginning?
    Can I play my 
    recordings in non-
     VCRs?
    Does the marking process interfere with
    other programmed recordings?
    What happens if I cancel the marking in
    progress so I can use the VCR?
    What if part of my program is advanced
    through along with the commercials?
    Answer
    The VCR advances through a 3-minute commercial
    block in about 8 to 12 seconds if the tape speed is
    SLP. In SP, it takes about 25 to 35 seconds.
    Yes. The commercials are not marked until after the
    recording is finished.
    Yes. By setting the C/A PLAYBACK to MANUAL (see
    page 27), you can view or advance through
    commercials as desired.
    Yes. 
     works in SP, LP, and
    SLP.
    Yes. As long as C/A PLAYBACK is set to AUTO (see
    page 27), the VCR should advance through
    commercials each time the tape is played back.
    The tape stops at the end of the recording so that
    any additional timer recordings can be performed.
    Yes. 
     marked recordings will
    play in non-
     VCRs, but
    commercials will not be advanced through.
    No. If the interval between 2 or more timer programs
    is not sufficient to mark the recording, marking will be
    done after all recordings are complete and the power
    goes off.
    Marking will be resumed when the VCRs power is
    turned off as long as the tape has not been ejected.
    Please see the 3rd note on page 27.
    Additional Notes:
    Because of the various ways in which commercials are broadcast, the VCR may not be able
    to recognize all commercials.
    If a timer recording is scheduled for the middle of the night, please be aware that the VCR will
    make some noise as it rewinds and fast forwards the tape while marking commercials.
