Sony SLV-SE230 VCR
Hi Folks
can someone point me in the right direction to get this type of vcr to track correctly, when playing a vhs tape the top of the picture is trying to tear and I think it may need a slight adjustment to the head in some way, I don't have a manual. Regards Ken |

Ken,
I presume you're using it with a CRT telly from an era when VCRs were the norm? Very old (pre-1980) sets can give rise to similar symptoms, as can some LCD models, I believe. N. |

Hello Nick
I was indeed, but found a solution, first, the buttons on the remote were getting u/s and I came across a more reliable vcr which did not create the problem. Thanks Nick |
