I haven't actually tested it yet, but I believe that any deck that supports
both a linear audio track and the regular striped hi-fi tracks will work with
this. Sound on the hi-fi track, LTC on the linear one, and the linear one
feeding the Ad516's time code reader.
Yes, if You don't need the original sound on Your Tape it works with every VCR.
Bu if You want to hear the stereo tracks and read the LTC from mono track at
the same time, You will run into problems with most consumer VCR's. Most of
them have no separate outputs for Hifi-Stereo and Mono tracks.

Oh, oh well. Maybe warpdrive.device is different then. I hope they support
AFS, which provides partitions up to 9GB, but sadly doesn't work with
MovieShop.
AFS cannot work with movieshop because movieshop doesn't use any filesystem for
the Audio and Video partition (this would be much too slow). They are working
directly on the device level. But also warpdrive.device has this
2GB-limitation.
At the moment the DRACO from MS is the only computer which overcomes this
limit.
