Goldstar GVR-E435 VHS VCR - Page 3 Questions & Answers
I was recently given a gold star vhs-8mm vcr #
Most of the
goldstars that are 8mm need there remote to change to the inputs, However the trick with the channel up /down only works
ona small percentage of these units. This unit however will need its remote to operate its inputs. Also since this is not a standard VHS those inputs are
ment for camera's to record to tape not dvd as a pass through to tv. You might want to try getting yourself a rca pass through from
radioshack if you need to have those inputs. The cost of this device is around $25 bucks. Also if you need a remote for this VCR 8MM you can find them at
www.remotes.com. Otherwise there is not other viable was to get this on the inputs you want as its done on a remote.

Eats tape
What used to happen with these is.... the pinch roller used to get a build up on them, running an head cleaner through usually fixes the issues.
Trouble is I do not know if you can still buy head cleaners anymore, if all else fails you could open the unit and clean the pinch roller with some surgical spirit and wait for half hour to dry then try again.

What is you recommended dvd
Disc Laser cleaners do not work effectively.
It is recommended to use long handled cotton swabs and 100% isopropyl alcohol to clean the laser lense yourself - or have it professionally cleaned for $25-$30
You will spend $19 on a "cleaner" - to find it does not work properly.

Eats tapes
The VCR has a mechanical problem, and something is not moving the tape properly. Usually the takeup reel doesn't turn and tape piles up inside, or the tape isn't pulled back in properly before the cassette ejects. This may be due to parts wearing (especially if it's an older machine which uses rubber belts and wheels), gears that have gotten out of alignment, or electronic part failure. Without knowing the specific model and what mechanism is used, I can't give any specific parts to check or change. You can try a Google search for your model and may find the information already online. In any case, with the low price of VCR/DVD combination machines today (I don't know if a plain old VCR is even available anywhere now; haven't seen any at retailers!), you'll very likely spend more on repairing this unit than it's worth. It would probably be better if you used this as an excuse to get a new one.

Need power supply diagram
Without the model number, there is little we can do to help. Also, many of these are not generally available. The good news is that many power supplies for VCRs are relatively simple to fix. Are there any symptoms at all or is the unit completely dead? Check the transistor that is attached to the heatsink for shorts. Normally that is the first item to get smoked when the power supply fails. Then check the 160V+ capacitors. There will likely be a 2.2ufd cap on the primary side that is defective. Change it and try again.
If the above does not resolve the problem, update this and we'll continue.

No movie picture
If you want to record from cable to your vcr the usual configuration is either cable to cable box, cable box to vcr, and vcr to tv. If you want to get rid of the snowy pictures, you can plug the cable box directly to the tv and separately to the vcr, and you can also plug the vcr into the tv. but the tv has to have two inputs
the best configuration will be the black, screw in, coaxial cable from the cable box to the television and the red, white and yellow RCA plugs from the cable box to the vcr in.
then the vcr our red whit and yellow cables to the back of the tv.
To watch vcr, switch the tv to video mode
to watch cable, switch tv to channel 3 or 4, depending on the cable service.
please let me know if you have questions.

Where is the Google on the Matertech?
It appears that there could be miscommunication. As of my previous update in January 2022, Matertech doesn't seem to be a commonly known term or corporation. On the other hand, if you're talking about "Google," it's a well-known worldwide technological corporation that specializes in internet-related services and goods, such as search engines, cloud computing, online advertising technologies, software, and hardware.
Google's official website or an internet search utilizing one of the search engines like Google itself are usually the easiest ways to get information about Google. If "Matertech" relates to a particular thing or idea, further information could be helpful in order to provide a more precise answer.
