I think I'm breaking my camcorder using it to supposely caliber the tension of the tape by rewinding then forwarding and rewind each time I want to transfer some tape. I also have to rewind the tape using the camcorder "to keep tensions stable I suppose"; each time I want to redo a not so good transfer.

Is it possible to use the VHS adapter to rewind it on my VCR or can I use a standard rewinder will that cause tensions again is it safe?
If I can use a rewinder what type? What usually cause timebase problems... manual rewinder?
When I played this VHS-C on my VCR using the adapter, it it causes distorted images at certain points on the DV capture.

I have thought about buying a rewinding unit but they seem to have major problems. Most don't rewind all the way properly or sometimes even eat your tapes. Kinyo does have one though that cleans your VHS tape while rewinding. If you are worried about time based capture issues then your only real recourse is to get a full frame TBC like the Datavideo 1000.
