Sounds like really bad tracking. You may only be able to fix it with a TBC. However if its too far gone you might not be able to recover it all...... (edit - at least on a prosumer level - perhaps an official restoring service MAY be able to for a price)

whats weird is it was playing fine yesterday on a VCR, i had to FF a bit and heard noise.. took out tape right away and noticed a bit was being chewed.. so then tried another VCR and it was tracking issue, it has digital tracking and wouldnt get it right.. so now tried the 3rd VCR and this is whats happening. you think getting a tape cleaner would do the trick then, if not professional.. k thanks

A tape cleaner wouldn't hurt. However I haven't done that stuff in quite awhile so I don't know products you should look into.
I'd save the professional stuff as a last resort. However it doesn't sound good if the tape was being eaten......Donatello - The Shredder? Michelangelo - Maybe all that hardware is for making coleslaw?
