Poor VCR recording
I have a time lapse video used at my house for domestic purpose. It is
about 18 months old, and now records very poor in the daytime but ok at night. Is this something to do with the higher peak to peak voltages in brighter light. If I play an old tape that it recorded all is ok. That also seems strange as I thought the recording and play head was the same thing. It is not a camera problem as the picture is perfect on a tv. Anyone got any ideas. I have tried a head cleaner, but it did not make any difference. John |

Video out from the camera to the vcr, or rf? Ken |
