It’s a Matsui TVR 190 player/ recorder and the tape contains ancient home recorded videos of our children.
Yes. On the sides towards the back of the tape, you will see the tabs that slide in order for your tape to load. Cover with tape or fasten them back, plug in the tape and presto, good as new again. I would suggest that you create a backup of the tape but linking your TV to a laptop and recording it!

I don;t know if this is the solution to your problem but it might work, as it did for me.
When you start ULead Studio click on the capture tab, then click on the camera icon named "capture video", then in the middle of the page you will notice the "options" icon (looks like a cog) go to Input source and then at the top of the window you will see "input source" again, click the dropdown list and select "video composite". Try that and see what happens.
SOURCE: vhs player eating tape
Hunnn....Eats the tapes, with salt & paper?..just a joke!
The tape runs on a guide ( sort of a tiny ledge )when it is fully engaged. The tape cartgage is loaded ' sucked ' in with gears that drop the cartage on top of other switches to give direction, so that "fingers" pull the tape towards the reading\recording heads. When the tape IS aligned properly, BUT is locked in the proper position the tape will NOT touch the upper or lower "ledge" that keeps it accross the heads.When the tape is NOT aligned the upper or lower tape WILL touch causeing damage. OPEN THE CARTGAGE ,Look to see if the upper & lower of the tape is damaged. Now when you say "eats the vhs tape" Does the tape comes out WRINKLE, CRINKLED,CRAMPED UP??? Then that could be ANY wheel with a black rubber rim. going bad. replace if you can. but they are VERY HARD TO FIND if u don't know what u are doing.
SOURCE: no picture on vhs tapes
Is the picturejust snow or no picture at all? Most cleaning tapes won't work if the heads have been clogged up because of a bad tape. A professional cleaning and alignment may be in order here. Can you clarify the lack of picture please?
Thanks,
Dan

Chances are it is in need of a major cleaning. Usually by the time this happens the cleaning tape will do no good. A good internal cleaning is usually the only thing that will help it........Has it been droped? If it has then you could need repairs

Hi Frances Vaughan, we want to help you with your question, but we need more information from you. Can you please add details in the comment box?
where was vhs tape stored ?
has moisture got into it ?
try putting into a sealed box with a drying agent http://www.chem.ucalgary.ca/courses/351/...
Thank you for your reply. No moisture, it’s been stored in a dry box inside the house. I have also been advised that it’s a mechanical problem with the casing and have just successfully moved things around and the casing has finally gone it. Thanks again.
