I picked up this VHS player at the goodwill for 4.99 (why don't they just make it 5.00) and it seems to make recordings at about the same quality my SD cable box puts out.

Here is the problem. When you first turn it on the right half of the VFD comes on immideatly but on the left side it takes a few min to "warm up" and is dim still after it comes on. Is this just because of weak caps or is it a display on it's way out. Also for some reason if it stop the tape rewind it and then hit play it will not play the tape but if I eject it and press play it works just fine?
