Description:
When it comes to VHS picture quality, you can't do much better than JVC's S-VHS HR-S3912U. The deck offers hi-fi, four-head performance with S-VHS ET (Expansion Technology), which lets you record broad-bandwidth Super VHS signals on affordable standard-VHS tapes. The player/recorder comes with front audio/video jacks for easy hookup with camcorders, video games, or an extra VCR. One-year, eight-event express programming and a full-function remote simplify scheduling and operation, while a handy child lock keeps "unauthorized" viewers from watching or taping specific channels and time slots. Other features include Active Video Calibration (which automatically judges head condition and tape quality to maximize the potential of the tape being used) and VCR Plus+ with cable-box control (which lets you program on the fly by entering the PlusCode numbers found in most TV listings). A JVC Cable Eye controller jack automatically switches channels on your cable box or satellite receiver for ready taping or viewing from the HR-S3912U, but you'll need to request the Cable Eye module from JVC (free of charge) to use this feature. You can choose from four picture-technology settings: "Auto/Normal" enables the Active Video Calibration System; "Soft" reduces image coarseness when viewing overplayed tapes; "Edit" minimizes degradation during editing (recording and playback); and "Sharp" gives you clearer, sharper-edged pictures. When used in concert, JVC A/V Compu Link components like the HR-S3912U will power up and switch to the correct input anytime you play a DVD, videotape, CD, cassette, or even when you simply want to watch television. When you're done, you can power down the whole system with a single button. What's in the Box
VCR, remote control, remote batteries, an S-video cable, an RF coaxial video cable, a user's manual, Cable Eye request form, and warranty information.
