I was looking for any videos of a ECCO unit in use. Dude, what was this mish mash of clips? If i were a prospective client I would have ZERO faith in what you were doing.
I have a tape that was eaten by a defective VCR and is now covered in grease. This makes it unplayable - would a machine like this be able to clean it off without damaging the recording? The tape contains a rare wiped episode of a BBC Schools TV show.
We can try to cleaning with some cleaning solution and the TapeChek will definitely help. There is no guarantee BUT we can try. We have been very very successful in recovering hundreds of Tapes that other companies could not. Let me know if you need more information. Thanks for watching!
I think my film was cleaned with something that had color to it once. Will cleaning it properly take out the color left in the film from its previous cleaning work?
And once you cut, once you cut, once you cut, once you cut, the film with the splicer, with the splicer, with the splicer, why aren't you using the splicer to apply the splicing tape tabs, splicing tape tabs, splicing tape tabs, This video was stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid
if you pick up any grit on your cloth you will scratch the from from then on. I do this method but change my cloth by folding every few metres so I have clean area or cloth.
I started to get mystified and frustrated right at the start the number of times we watched a reel put onto that turner before any cleaning had even been done and asking myself WTF?!
Why do you handle the with your bare hands. We use white gloves to keep fingerprints off the film. Only one other point is when you use the splice just leave the film in the splicer and put the splice on it and it is then very dead on. It aligneds the sprocket holes perfectly instead of trying to eye it. Good luck.
OK if you are prepared to pay up to $2000 or more for the machine to clean your copy of Invasion USA than this is the machine for you. Otherwise, by a DVD and throw away the tape!!!!!!!!!!
I wish to use Tape Check before I transfer my primary favorite VHS tapes I have to DVD so that I won't experience fuzzy frames or descending color bars in the middle of the video. I would like my DVDs of movies captured from VHS tapes to look close to DVD quality or I can record it the way it is and then digitally correct some frames.
Well you can buy a TapeChek machine for around $4000(new) if you wanted to go that route. By the way, VHS actually makes almost identical quality recordings in the SP mode as dvd recorders also. Also the sound is CD quality with the more expensive VCR's. Now that's the funny thing about VCR's don't you think?
chocojian: I really do appreciate your feedback, it helps me determine what to consider for other videos. It is funny no doubt and I don't take the constructive comments in bad nature. One of the reasons it is long is because a lot of our viewers have very precious family memories on thier tapes and they want to know in detail how this will work and ensure it is not a homemade cleaning device that will destroy thier tapes. I'm just trying to give the best info possible to my viewers. Thanks!
@ chocojian, hey thanks for watching...! It was my first video and just designed as a starting point. The real factor here, it is AWESOME machine and I do agree that a better video needs to be made to demonstrate that...I think people are missing how good the machine is because my back-ground voice is a little silly. Although a little silly, did you find it informative about the machine? Thanks, from ncinelli
