I have a super vhs player and all it does is take a bad image and smear it with noise reduction to make a less sharper image ...
Links in the above referred VideoHelp forum page gives a pretty extensive list of machines and their user rankings. You might be able to tell from that if your player is defective or not even in the running. ;)
Even different machines with the similar fix-up features produce noticeably different results, as demonstrated on "J.R." at forum discussion VCR comparison: JVC HR-S9600 & Panasonic NV-FS200 (AG-1980). And that doesn't take into account switching on or off the other processing options to produce the most pleasing result.
For any kind of VHS capture, I'd say TBC (true TBC) is a minimum requirement.
