Sony Handycam DCR-TRV510 Digital Camcorder Questions & Answers
I was having the exact same problems, and I read a post on this website somewhere recommending that I just record a few seconds of video on a blank portion of tape and then the camera should start playing video normally again.
I tried it, and IT WORKED!!

Hi
obviously I understand from your question that the cam coder has no any fault, it seems the fault is with your computer. if so try to restore your system with the windows restore options.

Tape mechanism problems can be quite complicated. This will require disassembling the camera to repair the tape mechanism and can be done fairly inexpensively. However, it's not a user serviceable problem and will need to be repaired by a qualified service technician.
My name is Rick and I'm a professional repair technician with over 20 years in the business and have repaired many of these. I'm semi retired and work from home with little overhead so I can keep repair costs low. If you decide to have the camera repaired, please click HERE for a directory listing that suits your needs.
If this response has been of any help to you, please be sure and give a positive vote for me on FixYa.com.

This is usually caused by an oxidized or defective Audio/Video drum. You can try running a cleaning tape through the camera. If this does not solve the problem the camera will need to be serviced by a qualified service technician.

Sony is pretty secretive about the :23 code. It can't be found anywhere. However, to service the C:31 code, Sony recommends you do the following:
- Turn off the camcorder.
- Remove the battery or disconnect the AC power adapter for 60 seconds.
- Insert the battery or reconnect the AC adapter.
- Turn on the camcorder.
- If the error message appears, service may be required.
If your camcorder still shows the same error code, then you'll have to send in your camcorder for service.

I recently had similar problem. Sony Phone tech support was very helpful. The answers were strange. You need to make sure the cameral is turned off, unpluged and take the battery out for at least 5 minutes. (something to do with reseting firmware). That sort of worked when coupled with there last comment which was to RECORD about 15 seconds and play it back. Mine was instantly healed!

Sony DCR-TRV510 is digital handycam and records video signal in digital format on tape.
Digital Video signal requires a software Picture Package installed in PC to transfer files. You can check camera box to find software cd for the same.
You also need to hook camera trough iLink port to iLink / DV port in PC. You can find details in user manual of handycam and still need help, let me know.
