This ones a little bit different as were looking at two Sanyo VTC6500 Betacord machine not Betamax as that was Sony only; it's the Beta format. We looked at these in a previous video and one was almost good to go with a few minor bits and pieces but the second one needed bringing right up to good working order. The membrane gets replaced too and I think I've found a great solution.

Email me if you'd like one of these 'membranes' for your machine as I have a few extra ones that I would be willing to sell.
