...has deteriorated. It flickers a lot on standard-play videos & can no longer show any pictures at all for any videos recorded in long-play speed. I have taken very good care of my machine & it is a high-quality brand machine (I paid a lot of money for it too), so I suspect that the video-heads are dirty & simply need to be cleaned.
At the beginning, I thought it was okay to continue using my machine to watch my videos on. However, two brand new tapes that used to be in excellent condition have gradually become picture-damaged & this has only happened over time the more I watched my new videos on my machine. The tapes used to work perfectly on other machines, but the tapes have slightly become damaged & even flicker a lot on other video-players. I'm going to take my video-recorder in for repairs a.s.a.p!
If it's possible for dirty video-heads to damage any cassette you try to play, should I avoid watching any videos in my machine until it's been checked out by professionals?
