Hi all,
I have been given a SP/LP TDK mini DV tape to edit down for a friend. My only problem is i put it in my Sony Mini DV camera as a middle-man means of gettting it log and captured onto my computer and it does not recognise the tape. The screen just remains blue. I have Sony Tapes that work fine in this DV camera. I guess my question is are Camcorders specific with the types of DV tapes you put in them (even if it is just playback)? or do i have a problem with the tape i have been given?
