[Outland]

The old 1994 Panasonic VCR I use to record stuff off TV every once in a while has finally given up the ghost it seems. It spits the tape back out after you push it in, sometimes right after, sometimes after 30+ minutes.

I've also noticed putting a tape in doesn't work as it should anymore, the mechanism doesn't suck the tape in, spitting it back out instead. The only way to make it go in is to push it all the way in.

What are its chances? Feels like a belt.
