I recently had a need to watch an actual tape, because I found a tape,
copied from a video-camera by a friend, which is the only one that
contains some shots of my parents.
So I think I first tried the video recorder with another tape. I had to
find a TV set with a SCART connector, and found that I had one that just
by chance I did not recycle.
The test tape played fine, so did the actual tape. Just some bad region
with sync difficulty.
I then located a service that convert tapes to digital file: perfect.
Their machine managed to extract video from the part that seemed corrupted.
Now I can ditch my tape collection and two machines.
