Hi everyone,
I am currently in the process of capturing some Hi8 tapes for a friend. They were all recorded on the same Sony Hi8 camera, which is long gone. I am capturing these tapes with a Canon Hi8 Camcorder that I had at my house. Some of the tapes come out beautifully and some are getting some gray horizontal lines across the screen intermittently throughout. The sound during these times is also very off. I have cleaned my heads on my camera and also played with the settings, which hasn't helped. Again, out of the 25 or so tapes, there is only 4 or 5 doing this. Any suggestions would be great.
