Tape was playing back fine on the camera, once I got home to import the footage from today the tape was having tracking issues. Footage from previous days on the same tape is fine, the only affected footage is from today. I am using a TDK HS Super Avilyn VHS Tape with JVC HR-7800u SVHS player with TBC and the footage does the same thing on another VCR. No noticeable damage on the magnetic film either.

Is the tape not playing at the right speed maybe? Thanks for reading and any help is appreciated.

Either
- signal damage
- or from the mater source (ie, copy of copy, recording of broadcast, etc)

Meaning no physical damage to anything, nothing to repair.

Thank you, any idea how this can happen? Footage played back fine and then a couple hours later the whole section of footage from that day was ruined. Trying to avoid this issue from happening again.
