Hi,
over the weekend I digitized a VHS tape. It’s an LP tape.
After the tape had finished running, I rewound it all the way to the beginning. Now the player won’t eject it anymore.

Here is a video demonstrating the issue:

Can you estimate whether the tape can be removed with a simple intervention, or whether this really requires an expert/technician?

Best regards,
Daniel
