What does VHS mean?
'Video Home System' (VHS) has become the world-wide standard for the
playback and recording of amateur video cassettes. This popular standard
continues to be improved. Super VHS (S-VHS) provides a sharper picture and
less noise. Digital VHS (D-VHS) only works with digital picture and sound
signals. Your video recorder can only record and play standard VHS cassettes.
