![]() Possibly one will have a wider auto-tracking tolerance. Maybe you should try to play these tapes in other MiniDV camcorders. Other than tape damage, or tracking issues, I can't think of another possible cause. I've never seen this type of problem with MiniDV tape but is common with analog VHS-C. Usually this type of problem shows on all tapes recorded after the original camcorder went out of alignment possibly due to a drop or bending damage from a jammed tape. This issue is often found when recording in LP (narrow track) mode but in extreme cases can affect SP mode. If so, it may be able to play the tapes but other camcorders may not be able to track. If you are sure the same tapes later played with errors on the original ZR10 and play with the same errors on the newer camcorder, it would seem to indicate some kind of damage (probably magnetic or extreme heat) to the tapes that don't play.Īnother possibility is the recording camcorder had mechanical alignment issues during the recording process. If the tapes played correctly in the original camcorder after shooting then the heads weren't clogged during the record. Its a video of my brothers wedding so its pretty important that i get it sorted if possible. Gary I have a very similar issue - except my lines are black and it happened as soon as i shot the film. I hate to lose family memories like this, so I truly appreciate any help or suggestions. The first one has clicking and popping audio, and the second one has no audio (but that might be the video itself having no or low audio). ![]() There are two 25 second scenes in this video, encoded to 512kbps wmv. The other tapes with coorrupt data have some good video on them. This tape is the first one so far that is 100% corrupt.no good scenes at all. Here's a link to a small sample taken off one of the tapes. Step 3: Press play on the camcorder and record on the DVD recorder simultaneously. Next, insert the MiniDV tape that you want to convert to DVD into your camcorder and select the type of input that is used for connecting MiniDV. The tapes themselves are not damaged at all, so it's not like recovering data off a hard disk that's been drilled through.I just want to get the good video off the tapes. Step 2: Insert a blank DVD into your DVD recorder and wait for the DVD to load fully. Other tapes recorded with the ZR10 are fine, but I haven't yet pieced together the timeline of good-to-bad tapes.Īnyone know of a good data/video recovery service that can try to get the uncorrupted video off these tapes? I hope the good 1s and 0s are in there somewhere. I have not played back any other tapes in the ZR10 (threw it away), but these corrupt tapes were recorded using the ZR10. I recall seeing this at the end of life for my Canon ZR10 camcorder last year, as I tried playing one tape to find some footage, so I bought a new Panasonic PV-GS250. A few of the tapes (from 2001-2002) so far have had varying degrees of corruption, with blue horizontal bars across the video and minimal remaining audio. I'm in the process of capturing my 40+ minidv tapes to external hard drives, mostly for backup purposes.
