COMMERCIAL ,, ADVANCE ®

The feature, Commercial Advance, is patented technology that

detects and marks most commercials on your tape for any

recording that is more than 15 minutes long. After recording, the

VCR rewinds the tape to the beginning of the recording and

determines where the commercials are located. It then marks the

beginning and end of the detected commercial segments, and

when finished, returns the tape to the end of the recording. It

does not erase commercials from the tape.

During playback, the VCR automatically skips the detected

commercial segments, or you can chose to manually skip them.

This feature reduces three minutes of commercials to

approximately 8-12 seconds of fast forwarding in the SLP speed.

You can select a background display of blue or see the recorded

video as the commercials are skipped.

Because television signals do not indicate where the ads are

located, the Commercial Advance feature finds and marks them

through a set of formulas based on how television is broadcast.

Since television stations broadcast differently and insert their

own commercials, you may experience some variations in this

feature's effectiveness. Station promotions, identifications, and

announcements are not considered commercials, but might be

skipped by this feature. For more information, see "Questions

and Answers About Commercial Advance" in the Reference

section of this manual. All Commercial Advance features are

accessed through the COMMERCIAL ADVANCE menu.
