Question about Panasonic AG-DVX100B DV Digital Camcorder

DVX100B has no picture, no output on screen or to my laptop

I've tried about 6 different tapes, and each has the same problem. I have no output on the screen, or on my laptop. I've been through all the steps in the manual, ensured I'm in VCR mode, etc. The motor is going, and I can hear it rewind, play, etc. but hte screen is just black except for the tape information. Thinking it might be an internal problem, I tried doing a capture clip in Final Cut, only to have the same problem - no picture. help me......!

Try a cleaning tape. It doesn't take much dirt to lose video playback with DV.

Have you tried playing the tape in another device? Adjusting the recording volume if that is an option? Look for the user manual pdf online and also try a brand new or different brand tape to ensure that is not the problem.

Toshiba Satellite A505 - Most of the time when I turn it on the screen is grey, with no text.

This sounds like a bad display on the laptop. Hook up an external monitor to the vga port on the laptop. You may need to toggle the display to output to the external monitor. This is generally accomplished by pressing the "FN" key + one of the F# keys. Look for an icon that resembles a monitor or it may say LCD. If the graphics display correctly on the external monitor, then you will need to replace the computer screen.
