I have played tapes recorded on another vcr on this magnavox combo, and have had the same results: sp tapes look fine, ep tapes have tracking streaks. thank you
SOURCE: Sound goes up and down when recording with VCR
This is usually caused by poor contact between the tape and heads or the tape fluctuating as it goes through. First try a cleaning tape and see if that improves matters.Then get a friend to show you how to clean the tape path with alcohol and q tips.I assume there is no picture disturbance? There could also be other reasons like the auto level not working properly but start with the basics.
I hope I have been of help but please do not hesitate to ask if you have any further questions.
I appreciate your vote if you appreciate my reply.

There is typically a small rubber belt or plastic gear that goes between the tray motor and the tray. Most modern units have the plastic gear. I would bet that it is missing a tooth or stripped its teeth or possibly fell off completely. You should be able to manually push the drawer in. To open it, there should be a small hole near the tray into which you can push a straightened-out paper clip.
Good luck!

I hope you are connecting 5 RCA jacks when using the component video out. HDMI cable carries both audio and video over one single cable but the component video has 5 jacks, 3 for video ( Red/Blue/Green ) and 2 for audio ( Red/White ).
Testimonial: "My bad! Should have said, "composite video". Problem was between my video glasses and this unit...not the Magnavox recorder. Thanx for your help"

The design of the combo does not support RF output from its internal tuner. You have to use audio video or s-video output to TV. Or you have to add an RF modulator from Philips to output RF channel 3/4 analog connection. Combo RF output is just pass through DTV antenna connection.
