Description
The Toshiba V-33 was a front-loading Betamax VCR, a sibling to the V-31. Like the V-31, it featured automatic sensing of video input to switch from tuner to AV mode — a feature unusual among Betamax VCRs at the time. Both machines were also marketed under the General brand name with a recast plastic front panel.
