I'm getting pretty annoyed by this, I don't know WTF else to do... New drivers, freshly cleaned VCR heads and rollers and such... All I can think of is to get a SVHS deck or a DV cam. Or, perhaps just a new cheap VCR.... bleh.
I'm trying to capture my problem tape yet again, this time on straight VHS resolution instead of oversampling like I had been doing... it's the last chance I have before resorting to the $$$$ options.
