| Re: Sony Handycam problem
If I've understood what you're saying (you connected the Handycam to your VCR and recorded live video onto VHS), it sounds like your problem is:
(1) incredibly dirty heads, or
(2) badly misaligned heads, or
(3) the LCD is dead.
So it's a bit of a no-brainer to try cleaning the heads, don't you think? Especially as the camcorder is begging you to give it a clean (this is assuming that the "cleaning tape" message appeared while there wasn't actually a head-cleaning tape in the transport - otherwise it could be your camcorder simply telling you that the tape you've got in there is not fit for recording on). At least that would either prove or disprove the dirty heads theory . . .
