Hi,
I have a Philips 1010BPH Super VHS VCR. In SVHS ET mode, the recordings are fuzzier than with the regular VHS mode. I've done a recording from a high quality source and on the same TDK EHG tape recorded a segment in SVHS ET SP and then in regular VHS SP. Comparing the recordings made me a little bewildered as to why SVHS ET would look worse than regular VHS.
The only problem I can think of is the tape quality not being good enough. However, I did do some research before buying the TDK EHG (extra high grade) tapes and found that people have used them successfully for SVHS ET copies.
Or maybe my VCR has an inferior implementation of SVHS ET.
Any insight would be appreciated.
