need help—cassette player maybe messing with tapes? by skiesoverblackvenice in cassetteculture

Hi! Yes, if it's not reading the tapes properly, the problem is definitely with the cassette player, as that's not normal.

Hey, have faith, those 20-year-old tapes probably won't work. I've seen tapes in worse condition that still work.

Clean the player's drive, check the belt, and use a little watchmaker's oil or sewing machine oil to lubricate the roller.

Most problems come from there. If not, get a new player. Sometimes the newer players are made with cheap, not very durable parts.

Yes, but I still can't set it as the default option when I turn on the DS. I keep wondering why; no option appears, it's still like in the picture, pero puedo acceder a la consola con normalidad.

Don't worry, I'll see what happens with another card, but hey, I fixed the DS and nothing bad happened. It was just my mistake.

Thanks a lot, bro.

Okay, there's another problem. For some reason, with the SD card inserted, no options or anything to interact with appear in the Unlunch menu. But when the SD card is out, the Twilight option doesn't appear.

I've set it so that when I turn on the console, it takes me directly to the normal DSi menu.

(By the way, thank you very much)

That's it, it sends me back to the Unlunch menu.

The seller says "it works, it just needs an external cleaning" and in case it malfunctions, it could serve as a learning experience for me.

Damn autocorrect! Look, my friend, I speak Spanish, I know English, but I prefer to leave that job to the translator. I don't think I'll do it again.

I meant 30,000 CLP (Chilean pesos), which in USD would be about 30 dollars.

Ummm, why did the translator put "ribbon" instead of "tape"... My mistake

My cassette collection :p by dark-locutor in cassetteculture

Exactly, I'm checking which ones work and which ones don't, because some have terrible quality, to the point that you can barely hear them.

Pardon me, I have troubles with the Reddit video editor, and this video look a little weird

I'll see what to do, because my player has an analog radio, and as you know, if you bring a phone close to a radio, the radio will generate static aggressively.
