Information

The following are common causes of a rolling picture:

  1. A rolling picture coming from a VHS tape is usually fixed by adjusting the tracking of your VCR.
  2. Some VCRs have auto tracking, however, if that auto tracking do not help correct the rolling, the tracking can be adjusted manually.
  3. On the VCR itself or on the VCR’s remote, there should be two tracking buttons, a plus (+) and a minus (-). Using these buttons, adjust the tracking until the image is to your liking.
  4. If after adjusting the tracking, the image continues to roll the VCR heads may need to be cleaned. This can be done by purchasing a commercial VHS cleaning cassette.
