Erase Recording?


Question Posted Monday October 9 2006, 12:25 pm

Hey I know this probably isnt in the right category but I'm desperate and I NEED help ASAP.
My family went to a wedding this past weekend (aww) and my dad recorded it for the bride and groom while i recorded it for our family...except he got the reception and bouqet toss and what not for the newlyweds (obviously)...well we just recieved news that the newlyweds and their family were watching it the other night and somehow the bride's mother hit record (and didnt know it i guess) and it taped over THE ENTIRE wedding and recorded some hunting thing on TV. Is there a way that we could somehow ERASE the hunting and still have the wedding video? I feel horrible because I only got the wedding and not the other precious moments they would want to cherish. So is ANYTHING like that possible?

Nope, sorry you're hosed. You're not the only one though, this sort of thing happens all the time. Most people look at photos of weddings, I don't know hardly anybody who cracks out the video on a regular basis, those tapes just take up space, don't feel bad.

But just so you know for nex time, there are little plastic breakaway tabs on the front of recordable VHS tapes and if you break those off, it makes it so nobody can record over it (unless they tape over the tab spaces, but that's hard to do by accident). It's a good idea to "break the tabs" if you record something you don't ever want to lose.
