Our Aiwa MX100 doesn't play our pal system tapes

You can hear the audio perfectly but the image is black and white and really bad. However, it does play our regular ntsc system tapes with no problems at all.

Just Clean the Video heads with a Wet Type Head Cleaner. Do 2 or 3 runs. Should clear up the problem.

Hello
You haven't given the exact model number ot your LG DVD, so I can only give you a general solution to this problem.
Get into its meny, surf through, come to SYSTEM adjust window, change the system. If a NTSC system recorded disc played with PAL system adjustment with DVD, there will be only black/white pciture, and vice versa.
Adjust it to the color system thathave been adopted your country. this must solve the problem. OK.

Is your VCR fixed?
From what you have written, I understand that you have not used the VCR for many months. And since you are hearing a whirring noise, the eject motor is working, but the belts are spoilt, and are slipping. Hence your problem. I suggest you open the top cover of the VCR and observe the eject mechanism. As suggested, you will - in all likelihood, observe that the belt driving the eject gears is slipping.

Trouble recording and playing NTSC tapes on NTSC TV!!
Sounds like the video head is dirty. Take the top cover off VCR, locate the video head, which is the rotating shiny aluminum cylindrical piece. At the lower edge of this drum are the actual heads. Use a lint free cloth moistened with rubbing alcohol or product specifically designed for such cleaning, and carefully wipe the heads and drum. Just hold cloth over a finger, and rotate the drum. Sometimes you will need to do this a couple of times.

If VCR has alot of hours or an abrasive cleaning tape has been used excessively, the head could be worn out and a candidate for the trash, unless it is a high dollar unit.

Pal to NTSC
Hi, Based on your post/description, you need to get a multi-system TV to go with your multi system VCR if you are going to playback VHS tapes from different regions. You are quite correct "Plays NTSC tapes to NTSC, Will not Play Pal to NTSC" to play PAL (even Secam) you would need a PAL/Secam TV. They have a different system for color and audio. In some cases, you can still play PAL but you get it in black & white and picture squeezed from top & bottom. Hope this be of some help to you. Good luck and kind regards.

Aiwa HV-MX100 multiformat VCR won't power on...
Too little information to give any information / help / opinion. What actually happens? Does the Display come on properly? Do you hear any mechanical Noises? Like a motor whirring? Are you able to load a cassette into the machine? Does it get ejected automatically? As you say that the machine switches ON, I assume tyhat the Power supply cicuits are Ok, and this leaves us with the possibility that there is a mechanical problem.Is it that the machine was not used for a long operiod of months or years? If that is the case, in all probability the belts are damaged / broken / loose. I really need more info, please.

Toshiba TV/VCR Combo: VCR Sudden Snowy/Shaky Picture My Toshiba TV/VCR combo was working well until yesterday. I was halfway through a tape, everything fine, and then -- boom! The picture went snowy while the audio was fine. Suddenly remembering that this tape had bonked out on my other VCR before it had the same issue, I quickly ejected it and tried to test other tapes, but alas, my fears were confirmed! Some tapes showed audio, some only when I fast-forwarded, and some none at all, but all with snowy picture. I left it alone all night, then today I got so fed up that I banged the TV a little with my hand (maybe not that smart, but I wasn't that rough) and now the picture is back but shaky, lined, and with a black and white section at the top. What can i do? Did this tape wreck both my VCRs or was it horribly bad timing?
