If you have a BeoCord V 8000 video-
tape recorder connected to your
BeoCenter AV5*, you can make an
instant recording of a programme you
are currently watching or listening to.
While the recording is in progress, your
recording is protected and you cannot
switch on to another program number.
You can, though, switch to one of the
other sources in your BeoCenter AV5 or
switch to Standby.
If you record directly from the
videotape recorder, you can, though,
record a TV programme and still be
able to watch a another TV pro-
gramme. This is only possible for TV
programmes because they are tuned
into the tuner in your video tape
recorder as well.
For further information concerning the
V 8000 videotape recorder, please refer
to the videotape recorder’s own User’s
guide…
Note: If you record an audio source, the videotape
recorder will automatically record at half the

uninterruptedly for up to eight hours, if you use
