if the camera records the video it will be there in the memory of it and you can check it by connecting it with a computer.if the video is in the memory there will be no problem with the recording device and the problem will be only to the LCD screen .if it is so, replace it with a new one which cost you about 35$-40$.if the settings are not correct the above problem will occur.so check the settings first and then go for the replacement of LCD .check whether the color of the LCD screen is in the correct level(check the brightness,contrast....)thank you.

The tape is not adjusted to cylinder head. Both the sound and picture is lost when the tape is not exact on the wheel (head). If the camera has not been used for a long time then can the adjustable pins start to rotate and change the position of the tape when it is used again. The oil has dried out and the pin is not running smoothly, and the screw starts to rotate as well.
So, the solution.
a) remove the plastic cover so you can see the two pins that pulls out the tape from the cassette.
b ) small droop of oil on the top of the two pins
c ) use a small screwdriver to change positions of the tape, by turning screw on the top of the pins.
Put in the tape again and test , thus you have to do small adjustments. Repeat the test until you see the picture.

This is simple but it will take some time. I have now saved all old films, it is hard to find a old video-8 analog camera ....
