That's a Hi-Fi tape - like high density HDs the arial (sp?) density is very high which means it will take a SERIOUS magnet to overwrite it. It's worth a shot of course but don't expect great results just waving one over it. Head to RatShack and pray they still carry demagnitizers for video tapes and try that smile.gif Actually, try it several times on both sides!

lol if i sit back and watch this tape with my parents im dead, my mom would fant, my dad would.. omg i cant even think what my dad would say.

i heard bleach would work but i still dont wanna mess this tape up kinda.. im gonna go 007 style tonight and look for the tape and swap it out with another.. good memories on that tape.

 

but if i cant im dead.. maybe ill just steal it and say i dont know what happend to it.

why don't you just take the tape, destroy it, and dispose of it. if the evidence isn't present, what are they going to do?

 

and I said, GET A CONVERTER FOR THE TAPE. it looks like a VHS tape with a slot in it to insert the 8mm tape into. they sell them so you can watch 8mm tapes in your vcr.

steal the cord that connects the recorder and the TV, unless they are determined to see this tape, they'll probably get a new cord giving you enough time to erase the video

See, here in lies the misgivings of youth. If something is on that tape that you are ashamed of, then I say tough. Let mom and dad see it and take your lumps. You are in their house, living under their rules (I assume...) so you need to face the music. malebitchslap.gif

 

I assume one of two things... You either had a roll in the hay with someone you are smitten with that they (Your parents) are not, or you pulled some stunt that you HAD to video tape so you could show it to your buddies... Either way, your stress is mildly amusing. Take the advice of others and swipe the tape or take your lumps... twak.gif

 

Being a step-parent is making me cranky... :D
