Rewinding VHS tapes

Let’s start with the basics. A VHS tape is an analog video cassette tape used for recording and watching video and audio during the final decades of the 20th century.

Therefore, rewinding VHS tapes refers to the process of winding the tape back to the beginning or a specific point on the tape after it has been played or recorded.

It wasn’t possible to simply press ‘back’ on the remote and quickly return to the part you wanted to watch. Instead, you would need to eject the tape and rewind it manually.
