I have a new Sansui 6" LCD/VCR combo unit(model number: CLD0065) that
I had intended to use for recording on a trip I'm about to take.

I hooked my older analog video camera which is a JVC Lolux(Model
number: GX-N7U) to the Sansui LCD/VCR via a 10-pin AC
adaptor(AC-C412).

For some reason I can't get a decent picture to record. And the best
picture I do get is when I use the "Fader button". If I keep my finger
on this button, the picture I get on the Sansui will progressively go
from a very dark, high contrast picture, to a so-so picture, to a dim
but washed out picture. When I take my finger off of the "Fader
button", it slowly returns back to the original dark, high contrast
picture. I can't get the picture to stay "in-the-middle". Not that I'm
supposed to. Even if I could, that's not a "great" picture, but it's
better than what is shown when I don't have the "Fader button"
depressed, or when I leave my finger on the "Fader button".(I am aware
that the "Fader" option is not the problem).

I tried all three of my JVC(GX-N7U) video cameras with the same
result.

I tested the three cameras with my CurtisMathis TV/VCR combo where I
got a decent picture, so the problem is obviously the Sansui LCD/VCR.

Could the new Sansui be faulty?

Any ideas on what I am doing incorrectly would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot.

almost sounds like a video stabilizer issue.. like copy protection
(macrovision)on a dvd, if you try to copy a dvd the picture fades in and out
and the just goes blank... It may or may not have anything to do with this,
its sounds feasible to me, but its 2 am, and I'm half asleep...
