You can't do this. It negates the minimalist TBC(ish) of the ES15. The first line TBC owns the signal. If JVC is on, ES15 cannot function. It's a reason this is a "TBC(ish)" setup, not normal/standard TBC.

This is correct.

You also cannot do this. Having no frame sync TBC will result in dropped frames, and the line TBC inside the VCR is not frame. It's line, not frame. Not the same.
The ES15 is a line TBC, sort of, with frame sync (not frame sync TBC). This confusing mess is why I just refer to it as a "minimalist TBC(ish)" for casual users. But also realize the lack of frame sync TBC can cause issues, which is why you should bolster the ES15 with a DVK or TBC-5000. Those are both weaker frame sync TBC that need somewhat purified signals, which is what the ES15 does. That addition makes it no longer be minimalist. The ES15+DVK or ES15+5000 is a powerful TBC(ish), though still not as ideal as pure framesync TBC (AVT-8170, TBC-1000, etc), with JVC line TBC enabled.
Did I make it more confusing?
Or hopefully you understand it better now?
