Is this page really necessary? There is already a page for the VCR. Perhaps the pages should be combined.
Can you suggest which VTR model is popular for industrial use ?
I'm adding my thoughts as of a current read via Ask Search Engine, where this came up as a mirror site page. I would like to see more information about Betamax and LaserDisc's last released models before bowing out of production, not just USA of course, consumer end, but as Wiki and other sources show the earliest examples, I would take keen interest in the last ones to appear, where the most refinement often happens. VCR competes with Camcorder variety, and now with Hard Drive based camcorders, one could argue, using Standard definition, mind you, the quality versus tape is still something to take seriously, when one is shopping for home use, or even professional dubbing and archiving video and audio sources.
Hello fellow Wikipedians,

The article says: requires 16 tracks for a single analog NTSC video frame or 20 for a PAL frame. Earlier it indicates 16 scan lines per track, which seems to indicate that it is 16 or 20 tracks per field, not frame. (Not that 262.5 is divisible by 16.) Gah4 ( talk) 21:53, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
You are correct about field vs frame. And the indivisibility of 262.5 by 16 is because some tracks recorded 17 whole scan lines while others contained 16. There was a small amount of overlap so that they all had a little over 17 lines recorded, but on playback the head switching occurred in the horizontal blanking interval so either 16 or 17 lines per track were used. http://www.lionlamb.us/quad/format.html#2in Whitcwa ( talk) 13:31, 19 January 2023 (UTC)
I recently heard on a podcast that the Beatles were the first people in the UK to get video recorders - arranged by their manager, Brian Epstein. Interesting snippet? Apepper ( talk) 15:10, 25 April 2022 (UTC)
