Preparation for use  
Decoder allocation  
This chapter shows you how to prepare your TV-  
Video Combi for use. The TV-Video Combi auto-  
matically seeks out and stores all available TV  
channels.  
Some TV channels transmit encoded TV signals  
which can only be viewed with a commercially  
purchased or hired decoder without distur-  
bances. You can connect such a decoder to this  
TV-Video Combi. The following function will auto-  
matically activate the connected decoder for the  
desired TV channel.  
Connecting additional devices  
After you have connected additional devices  
(satellite receiver, etc.) through the aerial cable,  
switch them on. The automatic channel search  
will recognise them and save them.

Playing back NTSC cassettes  
DIGITAL STUDIO PICTURE CONTROL  
Philips has developed a system which produces  
the best possible playback quality. For old and  
often-used video cassettes, this system reduces  
interference. For new or high quality cassettes,  
it emphasises the details.  
Cassettes that have been recorded in the NTSC  
standard (for example, American cassettes) can  
be played back using this TV-Video Combi.  
Displaying current tape position  
Picture/ sound quality is poor  
The following information is displayed on the  
screen: e.g.: 0:02:45 shows the counter in hours,  
minutes and seconds.

cassette  
'REM 0:06': will show the actual amount of play-  
ing/recording time left on the tape in hours and  
minutes.  
When you play an NTSC cassette, the TV-Video  
Combi will show 'REM -:--'.  
When playing rental videos or older, poorer  
quality cassettes, it may not be possible to com-  
pletely filter out picture and sound interference.  
This is not a fault in your machine. Read the  
section 'Manual tracking'.

If you rewind a cassette from the tape position  
'0:00:00', the counter will show for instance,  
'-0:01:20' (the cassette was rewound to 1  
minute and 20 seconds before '0:00:00').  
'-:--' is displayed in the 'REM' counter  
This counter will automatically recognise the  
length of the tape. In addition, when you put in  
a cassette the TV-Video Combi must first calcu-  
late the time played. Therefore, '-:--' appears  
first and only after the tape has been running  
for a few seconds, the correct playing time will  
be shown.  
Every time a tape is recorded, an index mark is  
written on the tape.  
These marked positions can be found again  
quickly and easily later.

General information

Use a TIMER programming to automatically start  
and stop a recording at a later time or date. The  
TV-Video Combi will switch to the right pro-  
gramme number and begin recording at the cor-  
rect time. With this TV-Video Combi, you can  
pre-programme up to eight recordings within a  
period of one year. To make a programmed  
recording, your TV-Video Combi needs to know:  
*the date you want to make the recording  
*the programme number of the TV channel  
*the start and stop time of the recording  
*VPS or PDC on or off

This information is saved in a TIMER block.  
What is 'VPS/PDC'?  
'VPS' (Video Programming System)/ 'PDC'  
(Programme Delivery Control) are used to con-  
trol the start and duration of TV channel record-  
ings. If a TV programme starts earlier or ends  
later than scheduled, the TV-Video Combi will  
turn on and off at the correct time.  
What do I need to know about 'VPS/PDC'?  
Usually the VPS or PDC time is the same as  
the start time. But if your TV guide shows a  
VPS or PDC time which is different from the  
programme’s scheduled start time, e.g. 20.10  
(VPS/PDC 20.14), you must enter the VPS/PDC  
time exact to the minute. If you want a start time  
different from the VPS/PDC time, you must  
switch VPS/PDC off.

If, contrary to expectation, you have any prob-  
lems using this TV-Video Combi, it may be  
caused one of the following reasons.  
No recording possible  
*The TV channel you want to record is not  
stored or you have selected the wrong pro-  
gramme number: check TV channels stored.  
*A cassette was inserted that does not have the  
security tab (cannot be used to record): Insert  
a cassette with an intact security tab or  
change cassette. For more information, please  
see the section ‘Preventing accidental erasing’  
in chapter ‘Manual Recording’.  
Your TV-Video Combi does not respond to  
any button being pressed:  
*There is no power supply: check the power  
supply.  
*Parental control is on:switch the parental con-  
trol off.
