I recently shot a VHS tape (no sneers, please) (grin) with my ooooolllld
camera and its JVC RS-s411 dockable. The room was hot and humid.

I didn't get a dew indication or shutoff, but periodically the camera was
surging and then re-locking. This was accompanied by a picture breakup and
re-lock on the video coming out of the video confidence spigot. This is a
new one for me . . .

Is there any way to defeat the auto-sensing speed control of a playback deck
to minimize this problem ? (I'd like to play it at the same constant speed,
and ignore the speed fluctuations on the playback.) And is this likely to
accomplish a smooth playback ?

Do you have any other suggestions ?
