Do I need to change the playback speed

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.
Picture/ sound quality is poor
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'.
