BTW, a quick way to tell the Funai deck in Sony is when you go into reverse
slow it jumps about 5 frames back. Apparently alot of them have a flaw that
causes this, or it's because it's a cheapo drive not designed for reverse
slomo.

That's the first I've heard of Funai OEM being used for Sony.

All the newer Sonys I've worked on had all parts that weren't even close to
being identical to Funai platforms. - Reinhart
