Just wanted to tell you that this video helped me today. I had a low hour UVW-1800 that was sitting for awhile and somehow the gears got out of alignment and giving the 21-1C1 when changing from small to large cassette. I've done many repairs on many machines, but not this specific one. After using your video, plus a few curveballs specific to my unit which I sorted through and cleaning/lubing everything up along the way. . .it now is functional and working smoothly! It was not the easiest repair, but I'm happy I saved the UVW-1800.
Thanks for this! SUPER helpful info. I think I did this correctly. However, I am getting "flagging" at the top of my video frame which is due to the tape being not quite "tight" enough around the drum. I can actually play a tensioner (and slightly "tighten" the tape run) and get the video to look perfect when playing. It's clear the tape isn't quite tight enough around the drum and making ideal contact. Do you think maybe I got this alignment slightly off and it's causing the tape to not be quite be tight enough around the drum?
can you please put up a video of absolute prescribe audio fidelity dynamics and response like incorporating professional hi8 VIDEO8 digital 8 beta max superbeta hihi S-VHS HiFi betacam SP SX (but all non-PCM or bitstream encoding) analog with AFM linear magnetic or depth multiplexing please?!
hi rick i have been working on some very old betacam sp BCB 75 decks all playing and recording audio there just one small thing i missed. i get a video signal coming in it's ok when a record it and play it back there's a black line moving down the video. i plan to use them as audio masters would like to get the video recoding fixed i know it may be a small thing i missed bob
