I've played both the CED selectavision disc intros on my CT-100/21CT55 and some of the video is on my YouTube/Flickr.

From what I have read betamax was designed in such a way that it couldn't flag wave up top... I've got many beta decks and haven't seen one do it.

The 4 hour LP speed never fully left VHS. I have late 90s VHS decks from sharp and other brands that can record at all 3 speeds... Sometimes it's nice having an in-between speed when you need more than 2 hours on one tape, but want the best quality you can get doing it.

A few years ago I read that later in VHS' run (sometime in the 2000s) someone made their own standard that could get more than 6 hours (I think it was like 8-10) out of a T-120. JVC never supported it and other makes never picked it up...I hear picture quality was as lack luster as you'd expect.
