vcr recording issue

Oct 21, 2007 2 Replies

hi, i have a magnovox vcr/dvd combo model: MSD805 and i'm having trouble when i try to record from this vcr. i normally use this vcr to record shows and it used to work fine until the other day when i taped a show and then i played it back the image was distorted and jumpy and the audio sounded like if someone was fast-forwarding through the audio, you can't understand any of the audio. i used a special tape to clean the video heads and it didn't make a difference i also tried a brand new tape and i got the same results. the only thing is that i can still watch movies with the vcr i just can't watch what i record. do you have any suggestions?

want my suggestion google is u r friend u pathetic sad loser.

sounds like the pinch roller isn't engaging ,if the tape is moving at high speed in play.there may be something blocking the path. you'll have to open it up in a dimly lit room and observe what happens when play is pressed.
