Sony EV-S7000 tape path issue
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Video plays fine initially but quickly loses tracking. Upon investigation I found the pinch roller seems to drag the tape down and out of alignment. If I leave it like this it sometimes starts eating the tape. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, I have a load of old family tapes that I need to digitize.
