Reinsert the cassette

SMACK THE CAMERA ON EITHER SIDE REAL HARD
? what does it mean plz?
can you explain for me plz?!!

when ever to get this kind of message just try to fwd the tape mannualy, or just make sure tht when u are rew. the tape dont rewind tht completely....

Believe it or not, after having the same problem "re-insert cassette" and "reattach power source", and after talking to Sony and them telling me it would be $111.00 to repair, I hit mine with the palm of my hand twice on each side and twice on the back by the battery and it actually worked--haha Go Figure!!

Dew has condensed in the camera. Eject the cassette but leave the cassette door open.remove the battery . Borrow a hair drier . set it to optimum temperature(not vey hot but but hot enough to cause discomfort when blown on fingers). direct the hot air through the cassette compartment door for about five minutes. reattach the battery and reinsert the tape.
Good Luck,

Hi,
The error C 32:11 denotes for mechanical unsuitability, This problem appears when the improper insertion of the cassette been done, or lose cassette tape stuck,
In all these situations mechanical adjustment is required, You are suggested to please contact any expert for the mechanical adjustment.
Hope you will understand my sayings.
Thanks for using fixya.

Hi, I had the same problem. When I inserted the new (or old ) cassette, it was showing me the same simbol as you are describing here.... The one thing to do here is to let it check in some CamcorderReparingCentre. After I let it to repare it they told me that there was some kind of engine broken , I paid £60 for reparing but my camcorder is working again,properly like before...

Tht means the recording protector tab of the tape is on, check the tape, most or f the time there will be a plastic piece tht can be broken off if u need to prevent any thing from recording on it, try covering the hole with a piece of adhesive tape and try recording

Reinsert cassette message comes when mechanism doesnt load cassette properly. If this error message comes again n again, means mechanism has some problem and unable to do task.

Turn the unit off and hit the back of the camera twice near the battery compartment with the palm of your hand. Sounds crazy but it worked with my camcorder Sony DCR-TRV480. Problem started when I used 8MM Head Cleaner. I think the roller got stuck inside camcorder. The trouble code came up C:31:22. Hope this helps.

I have the same problem.
