Adjusts problems with the brightness of video signals of
TV broadcasts or other external input.
Press
/ buttons to select the source, and / buttons
to select the mode.
(Only use this setting when you cannot adjust the
brightness satisfactorily with the Custom picture setting in

Important:
• This setting changes the video signal to record and the
recorded signal is not returned to the original state even
when this setting is changed after recording. When
duplicating from a VHS tape, if you can check the video
recording state beforehand, we recommend first playing
back for a while and checking the overall brightness
tendency, then setting an appropriate mode.
Standard:
The brightness of signals received with this recorder
and external input signals are adjusted automatically.
This is normally the setting to use.
Mode 1:
This setting is used to record the signals darker when
the screen is too bright.
Mode 2, 3, 4:
As the number rises, the signals are recorded brighter.
Use these modes to adjust the brightness.
