I have a time lapse video used at my house for domestic purpose. It is
about 18 months old, and now records very poor in the daytime but ok at
night. Is this something to do with the higher peak to peak voltages in
brighter light. If I play an old tape that it recorded all is ok. That
also seems strange as I thought the recording and play head was the same
thing. It is not a camera problem as the picture is perfect on a tv. Anyone
got any ideas. I have tried a head cleaner, but it did not make any
difference.

Hi...

Forget about the mechanical aspects of the vcr...

Tell us how the vcr/camera interconnect. Video out from
the camera to the vcr, or rf?
