Back in the days of 8mm/Hi8 and S-VHS recording. The higher end units had Faroudja processing. Sometimes as simple as better Y/C separation all the way up to 3D comb filters and video noise reduction processing.

The deck in that unit was a bit higher end, a lot of them had Hifi mono, yours is HiFi stereo and may even be able to play and record the PCM HiFi stereo trans as well as the standard AFM one

If you would like to attempt working on the deck I can provide you with an 8mm test tape.
