Palmcorder is having problems with mini-dv tapes. It either hangs up when a tape is inserted (ie. the power indicator blinks on and off and the palmcorder is non-responsive in either camera or video mode)... or when the tape is inserted the palmcorder chews up the tape...
ive had it for 3 years and used it sparingly (special occassions maybe 2-3 times a year)...
any ideas? can i open it up and tweak something...
any help would be appreciated... thanks.
I haven't had any luck yet... and I don't want to pay $35-$40 just for them to diagnose the problem. I'd rather find an answer on what the issue is and then get a quote on how much it would cost to fix the problem afterwards.

These type of problems usually result from damage to the tape transport mechanism, Unfortunately they are impossible to fully diagnose without a physical examination of the mechanism.
There is not a magic tweak for this i'm afraid.
