I'm dating myself, but I used to use 7-track tape too! It was 200 frames per inch. I remember diagnosing problems with something called Visimag. It was a volatile fluid containing suspended iron particles that the tape would be dipped in. You could then see not only the tracks, but even the individual frames on the tape!
It is used to adjust the vertical alignment of the tape head to insure that the set of tracks are centered on the tape. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
