Kind of like the old cassette tapes with the 3.5 mil connecter. Used to use one to play my CD player through the cassette player in my car. Probably pretty useless but I wonder if that could be pulled off somehow.
Don’t think so, can’t recall seeing one.
The flap is mechanically lifted when a tape is ejected, and I suppose a flap with an integrated display would be significantly heavier, increasing wear and tear on the mechanism, and then there’s potentially the issue of the cassettes scratching the display to shit.
Where do you put the tape?
In the future there is wireless vhs
We are all wireless vhs on this blessed day.
I always upvote for KenM!
This makes me want to see a whole computer inside a vhs case, like soc/r-pi or something. Then it can stream video wirelessly!
I’m pretty sure this could be done.
Nah have it be a working tape, so you put your smart VHS into the tape player and up pops android tv or something like that.

Yeah like one of those things!
I can’t see why it wouldn’t work, it works for audio so I could see it being able to do video as well.
Yeah it’s useless but it’s a cool little talking point.
Me: let’s watch something on Netflix.
*grabs VHS tape and puts it into the VCR player. *
I’m so looking forward to that. I hope they bring back Blockbuster with it.
I’m imagining that the flap is behind the LCD, and now I’m wondering if anyone ever made a VHS deck like that

It’s lamenting that it is too old to fit in that little disk slot. It’s a sad picture.😥
