Wow. I hope it still works...
The Mulan tape was wedged in there somehow. I got it out. I hope the thing didn't get damaged...
I now have the top off the VCR, and it plugged in, so I can see what's going on inside. Is this the electronics-geek version of having the side panel off your tower with the thing running?
I have this little plastic piece that I don't know what is.
The default testing tape is now the dollar store Sailor Moon episode. The Mulan tape came out just fine (we hope); the problem inside has to do with the tape holding/accepting/ejecting mechanism, which is busted in a non-evident way. The plastic piece looks to have broken off, which bodes ill for future use of the thing.
*sigh*
Grump.
