Cross-duplicating tapes: Difference between revisions

Since YouTube user Geno Cuddy’s Public Domain VHS Archive has a copy of Superman: Magnetic Telescope from RSVP that appeared to be recorded on the LP mode and had at least twenty minutes of black screen at the end (according to the video description), I'm starting to think those were actually from the copies that used RVSA-style cassette designs.
