Abstract
An improved helical scan type video tape recorder for reproducing a high quality video signal with no distortions, thereby a sag distortion is eliminated by applying a continuous reproduced video signal prepared by inserting FM signals reproduced by a pair of rotary heads into no-signal field intervals of a FM signal reproduced by a single rotary head, only the FM signal from which is used for displaying, to a clamp circuit, a skew distortion is eliminated by providing one horizontal scanning period of 1H between the last horizontal pulse in a signal field interval and the first horizontal pulse in a no-signal field interval of a reproduced video signal regardless of a type of scanning such as an interlace scanning for causing no disturbance in horizontal synchronization, and a phase distortion is eliminated by combining a pseudo-vertical synchronizing signal, which has a specific phase relationship with a video tape phase standard signal at any traveling speed of the video tape, with a reproduced video signal for causing no disturbance in vertical synchronization.
