DVDs that were made from broadcast tapes - dropout correction?

[90sTV]

As I understand it, professional equipment can hold the last good line to compensate/mask dropouts on broadcast tape. What happens when a company decides to use broadcast tapes and make some cheap DVDs out of them, though? Does the transfer result in the errors that would otherwise be compensated for showing up on the DVDs?

Dropout compensation and time base correction would normally be done upstream of digitizing and so would be included in the final DVD. (This is assuming you actually mean "broadcast quality" tapes and decks.)
