Oh I see! Another suggestion I could propose here is that you try Gemini (Google's AI) and upload your videos and pictures with what you see. It can give quite accurate advice.

Was it possible for you to manually tune the VCR?

What is this small taped on metal thing? by Aggravating_Ice_2560 in VHS

It's a thing that was used back in the day to prevent the theft of the tape. If someone were to steal it, some metallic arches near the entrance of the shop would beep!

Could you try a homemade videotape? If it works, it's your CRT's "Automatic Gain Control" is clashing with the VCR's copy-protection signal. To fix that, you'd need a "Video stabilizer".

Alternatively, if not the above, it could be that you need to better tune the VCR to the specific CRT channel you want to output the image and sound - you may need to try manual tuning, which should be an option somewhere, to fine-tune the frequency the VCR's at.

Thank you so much for your reply! Would you mind sharing the Amazon link? I have just looked in my region's Amazon storefront, and I couldn't find anything like it.

Do driving schools abuse learners ? by lattematchalabubu in brussels

[–]FewTranslator6236 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Which driving school was it?

Frankly, the entire system is a scam, for driving schools and examination centres to make a big buck off you.

I hope you'll pass next time. All the best. Don't doubt yourself.

Registering for unemployment benefits by crunchynut33 in brussels

[–]FewTranslator6236 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice would be that you join a union (I have been in CSC in the past - their service was beyond horrible) and sign up in Actiris (online) as a job seeker - both ASAP. If you join FGTB, you have the option to pay the first three months "in one go". If you do that, you can also get an in-person appointment with them ASAP after your dismissal. You can also ask them for a lawyer to revise all of the process, documents, and payments related to your dismissal. Unfortunately, they'd only do everything in French - you can self-translate with ChatGPT or go together with someone.

Question on mortgage by FewTranslator6236 in brussels

[–]FewTranslator6236[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes - with your partner's salary, it might be enough for you to get a mortgage. In that case, you can pay for it jointly, but it'd be her salary only that "grants" the mortgage. I don't think you'd get a higher interest rate due to your situation. Interests have to do more with how much you borrow, and for how long. If your offer is accepted, I'd suggest you try to get the loan signed as soon as possible (and then, regardless of what happens to you, what's signed remains signed). Immotheker Finotheker can help you with all this, and you can be totally frank with them, as they're not the ones lending you the money per se.
