This shader recreates the look of a worn VHS tape: tracking lines, chromatic aberration, color bleed and noise, all rendered live on the GPU.
It runs in your browser with an instant live preview — drag the sliders and watch the effect update in real time.
Tip: Brighter photos show the chroma bleed and scanlines more clearly.
