Most tapes duplicated here were duplicated on cassettes manufactured in either Hong Kong, Korea or Taiwan, and had the audio track in linear only, although many SP-mode tapes duplicated here did have a hi-fi audio track in addition to a linear track.
Post-1986 tapes have a black screen test pattern with the 1000 Hz tone for about 45 seconds at the end.
Some tapes have the record tab intact; some tapes omit it.
All tapes have a printing with a letter with the nominal tape length, mostly above the tab part. Examples: M-15, A-30, H-45, W-15, T-30, K-45, etc.
1986-1989 tapes would have a screen saying "FOR BEST QUALITY PICTURE ADJUST TRACKING CONTROL" or "FOR BEST PICTURE QUALITY ADJUST TRACKING CONTROL" at the beginning of the tape. This was later discontinued.
Tapes by this duplicator do not have anything in the vertical blanking interval.

Feature Films for Families referred to the company as GoodTimes Home Video Corp. on the face labels of videotapes that were duplicated there.
