Without knowing much more I would say on the face of things this indeed seems like a tracking issue. My JVC SVHS does the same thing, and for some reason the time code freezes as well when the picture goes too. I tried doing everything from deep head cleaning to using the dreaded "head cleaner cassettes". Neither did much good, but what did work was just letting it sit "cold" for a few weeks, unplugged and unhooked up to a TV. After 2-3 weeks of that I plugged it back in and it worked fine. No explanation for that at all besides maybe there are some internal electronics issues way above my knowledge level?
