- If I have a source videotape that was recorded in S-VHS format, and I
- play it back on various combinations of equipment, what will be the
- resulting quality (relative or absolute) of the image on the monitor?
- Could someone fill in the right-hand column of the chart below giving
- combinations of playback equipment (remember: the source videotape is
- S-VHS). Are there any combinations that will not work with a S-VHS tape?
- (Assume cabling is correct and not a detractor.)
