Video Tape Copy Problems and
Solution
High Resolution Tape Copy
with Minimal Loss
Video tapes lose resolution and intensity
when copied. The images become blurry, with a milky like overlay
film. If copies are made from copies the loss becomes more extreme and
courtroom unacceptable. In order to minimize the loss of information content, resolution and
intensity, the video signal must pass through a full frame time base correction unit (a
525 line TBC) with both color and gray scale intensity adjustments. Furthermore, the
signal path used for the copy process should be the SVHS pathway. The SVHS pathway
is wider bandwidth than the VHS pathway and introduces less signal loss. Only high
quality new video tapes should be used in the copy process. The resulting copy will be
stable, bright, with good contrast, playable in ordinary VCR units.
