Why is this happening?
sorry if this is a daft question, but why is the film stuttering so much?
Back in COVID I got into Super 8 and other 70s-80s film formats, stole my granddad's projector (Bauer T600 Stereo-Sound) and a few Mikey mouse movies, and it worked fine then. I even got a copy of The Empire strikes Back on Super 8 from eBay.
Fast forward to now, my brother's friends boyfriends birthday is coming up, and he really likes 80s blockbusters like back to the future and star wars, so I thought it'd be cool for him to watch star wars on film. I got the projector out of the attic, and put in Mickey, just to find that the film is stuttering like crazy. I checked online yesterday, and reseating the gate and pressing the loop lever helped, but it still left me with significant stutter. Does anyone know the cause of this? Thank u in advance :)
