Perhaps they had a shorter playback time when recording in d-vhs mode. They could run the tape faster past the recording heads to get more data onto the tape.

This implies an effective VHS tape capacity of (14.1 / 8 * 60 * 330)/1000 ≈ 35 GB. Far ahead of ArVid, and pretty close to the 50 GB the English Wikipedia lists for D-VHS tapes. Unfortunately this relies on unverified Wikipedia information. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Video_Home_System https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Video_Home_System https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/D-VHS https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/D-VHS
