The counter was no longer advancing, but the display still had the forward arrow indicating play mode.

However you make me think. The counter on this has two modes, "real time" and "normal". Pretty sure it was in "real time". Is that based off of inches of tape fed through, or is it somehow embedded in the tape like the closed captions? If the latter, maybe I should try it again in "normal" as it's entirely possible that the tape was still moving but I couldn't hear it. Seems unlikely, but possible.

Edit: this could be why the tape is still held against the drum in FF and REW?
