Subject: Using TBC with no "external sync in" on VTR?

Is it possible to use a Time Base Corrector with a Video Tape Recorder
that does not have the "external sync in" feature?  I am using Intel's
DVI boards (the 2-board set) and the captured sequences from my cheap
VTR are all of out sync.  This is not true for sequences directly from
a camera, or from an expensive optical disk recorder.

Short of buying an expensive VTR with the external sync feature, 
is there anyway of cleaning up the signal using the TBC?
