1.cassette can't playback 2.SD card can't read

please take the camcoder to a tech or return to manufacturer if it still has warranty cos its not likely a problem you can fix yourself...

it may require simple things like cleaning tape head a re-inserting memory card or changing it

or require more technical details....

Take it to the repair service. I am really suspect who's still use a reinsert cassette so today,Refer to old Sony DCR-TRV285E Accessory ,and I didn't know a Sony DCR-TRV285E Digital-8 Digital Camcorder model ,please say clear and correct !

My camcoder ,when i incert a cassette the screen will show eject cassette and the cassette cannot fast forward.

This can be caused by several problems including the transmission gear in the tape mechanism not engaging properly or a defective clutch in the take-up spool and can usually be repaired 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.

Hi lskumar!I have also got SONY DCR-TRV285E and it gives the same problem as yours. It took me long 3 months to get around the problem. I surfed a lot and found that many people are facing the same problem with sony cameras.

Now the fix is - When your camera gives "Reinsert the cassette" message", take a pen / pencil like object and push the reset switch on the camera. Its just below the volume +- buttons. The camera would restart. See if this solves your problem. If it doesn't then switch off the camera and apply Indian style of repair - Give 1-2 slaps on the cassette side but don't hit too hard. Then switch on and reset again. Repeat 2-3 times if necessary.

This is weird but it works for me. I got this solution from some forum on internet. Hope it works for you too!!! Remember, this is only a temporary solution. The problem keeps on arising every now and then. The SONY ppl don't have any cure for this. They don't know why it happens.

One more thing. Buy a good head cleaning cassette. This would give new life to your camera-head.

Have a nice day! Do tell me if it works..
