is it possible to buy a VCR that displays in true RGB
my Sony W/S TV only plays well in RGB
anyone else noticed their Sony TV`s are a crap display when
watching analogue.

I`m led to believe, that sadly, standard VCRs don`t output RGB, although you can send the signal via it from your DVD to your TV, assuming Macrovision is off !!!

I wonder whether the digital VCRs may have this option - or am I imagining that digital VCRs ever came out.

No, a standard VCR uses composite analogue and NOT a digital signal as used by RGB.

Digital VHS on the other hand could ise RGB, although I don`t know if any of the models do.
