COMMERCIA L 66ADVANCE is a patented technolo gy 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 recor ding. It does not erase the commercials from
the tape.
During playback, the VCR automatically skips the detected
commercial segments, or you can choose 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
video as the commercials are skipped.
Because television signals do not indicate where commercials
are located, this feature finds and marks them through a set
of form ulas based on how television is broadcast today. 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. For more information—see Questions and
