I am still using a PANASONIC analog camcorder.
The camcorder uses VHS C cassette and it records and plays without any problems.
At my home I playback the VHS C tape with an adaptor on a regular Philips VCR.
I have noticed that tapes recorder during the last weeks on the PANASNIC camcorder do not play perfectly, as before, on the PHILIPS VCR.
Tapes that have been recorded on PANASONIC a year ago do play ok on my PHILIPS VCR.
So, I have a camcorder that records ok and plays ok the recorded tapes, but when I play the same tape on PHILIPS VCR - the bottom of the picture is distorted.
I have also tested the PHILIPS VCR and tried to record on it and playback the VHS C tape with an adaptor. Recording and the playback looks fine on PHILIPS VCR.

Question:
What could be the problem of playing back a tape on PHILIPS VCR that has been recorded on PANASONIC camcorder? Just to remind, that the problem appeared during the last period.


Thanks,
Martin Roth

Probably just needs cleaned, could be alignment too.
