Abstract

In a video tape recorder which employs a rotary magnetic head secured on a deflectable device, such as a bi-morph leaf, to dynamically perform head tracking during reproduction of previously recorded tracks regardless of the tape transport speed; the height of the magnetic head is detected during recording to produce a feedback control signal which electrically adjusts the height of the magnetic head by deforming the bi-morph leaf to overcome hysteresis deflection of the bi-morph leaf so that the magnetic head is returned to and maintained at a normal height during recording.
