[OT] Reuse Digibeta

I was wondering if it's generally a bad idea to try rerecording footage onto used Digibeta tapes. I have several tapes with older cuts that I'm not sure what to do with. Of course, if there's a good risk that the quality could be compromised then I'm assuming it's now worth it. Would appreciate any advice!

Thanks!
 
In theory, any tape will suffer after the first pass and it's not terribly good to reuse. In practice, DBeta can stand up to a few more than SP ever could. I wouldn't go crazy, but 5 or so passes and you'll probably still be safe.
