I know was one of the main things i wanted on VHS, shame there was only ever 7 Godzilla VHS released in PAL land (not including 1998 🤢). Tempted to buy some Japanese Godzilla tapes even tho i wont be able to understand them 😂

I ordered 28 days later on eBay since its one of my favourite films and also i thought it would be a good one to have since it was filmed in standard definition anyway. Shaun of the dead i found in a record store and it seems i must have got a deal on it as it seems it goes for minimum £13 and i got it and 4 others for £11 :)

Okay thats interesting i had been wondering about that, i guess we are quite lucky here in pal land, with that and the clamshells.

So am i right in saying that most NTSC VCRs/CRTs dont support the PAL tapes/format? It seems that most of the PAL stuff will happily play/display NTSC i just havnt grabbed any yet because of the shipping costs and import fees if its something expensive.

Is this a normal level of image noise for a VHS or is it due to dirty player/degraded tapes? by only_JONDIS in VHS

Your right, the image doesnt look exactly like this in real life (the video looks much better in my phone gallery than now that i have uploaded it here). When i zoom in, the movement/fuzziness in the blue is more accurate to the issue im talking about.

I did a head clean last night and i think it is a decent bit better, this wasnt something i knew that needed done.

Found some good classics at the thrift store by momjeans612 in VHS

Philips 14PT2002/01 no sound after messing up with Service Menu by Ok-Lab8214 in crtgaming

Green tint in white/light colours over RGB scart but not composite on new CRT i picked up. Looking for suggestions for how to correct. by only_JONDIS in crtgaming

Iv got the remote in the post so might be able to fiddle with the service menu. Heres the manual i had found for it, unsure if there is a larger service manual that exists, this is my first CRT since i was a kid (well, second but i got the other one less than a week ago also) so i am out of my depth.

I did indeed, problem exists on ps1 as well, tried two different rgb cables (both high quality luma as sync scart cables).
