I don’t know if it’s my bad luck, poor choice of products, heavy use or a curse but my DVD+VCR combo is kaput again. This time I think even my dad believes me. I can’t remember when was the last time the device was in service but then it may’ve been a false diagnosis on my part… Now the problem started off with a little vertical jiggle of the picture, then the picture started rolling and sometimes doesn’t show at all. DVD side is all good but neither the TV picture (through the VCR) nor the video picture show properly. Sigh.<\/p>\n
It started very suddenly. I taped a movie Friday night (12:40 till 2:30 am) and it shows up properly. Our “” decided to make a cement-shake from our house on Thursday\/Friday so perhaps that has broken something inside the device — I don’t know.<\/p>\n
I’m going to have to tape Sex and the City on my old and crappy VCR and hope that because I haven’t used it in a long while, it has recovered enough to work at least a little. I think can tape Gilmore Girls on upstairs’ VCR and everything else I’ll just watch. Luckily this time I won’t have XF worries because I don’t watch the episodes from TV anymore.<\/p>\n
This is so frustrating! Only the computer behaves nicely in my hands.
