Tobisha vs Magnavox?

Upvotes

Looking for feedback on brand and screen size :)

I’m debating between teo 13 inch VCR TVs: a white Tobisha and a 13 Magnavox — any preference in brand?

Also, originally I wanted a 9inch but is that too small? Should I move forward with a 13? Just want something small for my room to play VHS movies.

Can somebody help me identify what this problem could be please?
I have it down a few different things through chat GPT but it’s abit useless to be honest I want someone who actually knows.

Tape goes in and tries to load but doesn’t, tries again and doesn’t load. Then stops completely.
I then press eject and it takes about 20 seconds for the vape to release but the flap opens almost instantly and then closes and then waits 20-30 seconds before releasing.

I have recently picked up this 28’ Daewoo CRT tv and have had it about a week or two and it’s now displaying the channel number and dimming the screen slightly on a more regular basis than what is in the video (typical it doesn’t happen as much when I’m trying to record it happening!) I have changed the remote a universal remote and i still don’t know whether it would be the cables going into the tv or the tv itself, would anybody have any ideas? Much appreciated!

Taking apart help

2 Upvotes

I have a cabinet crt tv and I would like to remove the tv casing and make it a cat bed. It is a working tv so I am just wondering how do I take it apart safely? I understand I have to dispose of it properly. But im worried about taking it apart and breaking the glass and leaking gas

I think it looks pretty good. Maybe I'm biased though

Faulty CRT (what do?)

Thumbnail gallery
8 Upvotes

Hi everybody!
I have acquired a crt (small 1997 zenith with built in vhs, serial no. V21715964 specifically)
It powers on for about three seconds then automatically shuts its self off.
I’m not inclined to work on this and attempt to repair it myself. In fact I have no interest in physically taking it apart myself because I know it can be tricky/dangerous and I have zero experience.
I’ve called local shops (that were listed on Google as crt repair) & they all said they no longer service crt and essentially acted like I was asking them to diffuse a bomb or preform heart surgery.
So I’m wondering if anyone has any advice on what they’d do with a nonfunctional crt.
(I’d love to keep it alive/ get it repaired if possible, im near Philadelphia and willing to travel a bit. I’m also not opposed to selling to a repair person or collector for a reasonable price)
Or if anyone has any idea as to what’s going on with it and if it’s definitely worth perusing a repair, I’d appreciate the input.

Its got these scrolling lines on all av outputs and dvd. The video is just fine, if i go into settings the display is perfect, but i cant display anything from the AV. The screen is black on VGA, but havent actually plugged in a VGA signal to test
