Fine I will not purchase this Machines since it is more than $100
Panasonic AG-1980P, I have this VCR, however through the S-video cable I get a lot of interference in the signal. Only when I use the co-axle cable does it rid itself somewhat of the interference. However the picture tends to be a tad different.
After reading and reading, learning and learning, I need to clean the videos up before they get captured. The tapes with out errors, record & playback ok, however I still think it is possible to clean up the picture. That is what I want, the best possible picture. The sound we can deal with later........
So I think I need a good TBC with chroma filters, and other junk.
However many of the TBC's, I have been looking at online, have input and outputs ports of wire connections that I don't have on my PC nor in the DVD recorder. I don't know what they are called however the AG-1980 has a few of these ports on the back of it. These machines are a lot of money $700+, so I don't want to make a mistake on something that may not help.
Here are the two major errors with the betamax tapes
1) The outline of the person
2) Bad TV Broadcasts with wavy lines in the picture
