Possible Candidates[edit]
Other duplicators to be identified[edit]
There are still several duplicators that have yet to be identified, many of which their tapes did not have any kind of printing on the cassette, anything in the vertical blanking interval or anything at the end, not even following the static, and others which may simply not have any known specimens in the hands of the wiki's userbase.

Vertical Blanking Interval Tags from Other Unknown Duplicators[edit]
NOTE: Do NOT move any of these tags, even those where a duplicator has been possibly identified, until you can obtain concrete confirmation from other sources such as the individuals who originally captured the VBIs, via good pictures of the cassette proper at the relevant view or another method.
-
Codes like this were used at the beginning and end of tapes by a few duplicators, such as a few tapes by Allied Digital Technologies and one known tape each from duplicators #33 and #97 mentioned above. There may be one duplicator that used codes like this, though.
