oh i see,
is this model fairly good? im going to use it for play back only using the s-video line ,
its not coming up with error faults as yet im lead to believe ,ill see when it gets here ,
i have done research on some problems they have,it boils down to gears and belts,ill service these points before plugging in ,along with a lube and clean,i may recap audio broad after i have seen it working ,power supply as well im guessing,
have you any ideas of it age?
