-
- I recently received a couple of tapes that are dubbed from a PAL
-
- format to the North American format
-
- Let me start again (this system doesn't allow easy editing). Anyway,
-
- I received a couple of tapes that are copies of copies of tapes
-
- converted from PAL to the North American format. The picture quality
-
- is not high, but I don't have a problem with that as long as I
-
- can see anything at all-- which I can. The problem is with the
-
- sound. The tapes (yes, it's a problem with both of them) play with
-
- normal sound for anywhere from 30 sec to 3 minutes, but then they
-
- sound as if they're being slowed down by several times. If you hit
-
- the remote to rewind for a second, then return to normal-- then, of
-
- course, do it again several minutes later. The tapes are new, high-
-
- quality TDKs, so I don't think it's a problem with them. Does anybody
-
- have any idea how I might remedy this or what it might be? I've had
-
- no other problems with my VCR so it's probably not the culprit.
-
- thanx.
