This VCR has a little issue, it sometimes unspools the tape out of the cassette and chews it when ejecting. I would like to know if someone has had that trouble and what causes it. I always thought this was the best VCR mechanism ever made, because it does not have any rubber belt or tire, and there is no part that is common to fail like for example, the blue gear on the Sony chassis.
