Hi John,
This sounds like a Sony error code, if your TV is a Sony look here for their error code explanations: Understanding Sony Television Blinking Codes
If I've guessed wrongly post your make and model for more specific help.
ERROR 20 SYSTEM of SONY VO9800 is Mechanical Error. Distinguished by the suberror code. When Error 20 "SYSTEM ERROR" appears, a suberror code is displayed at the lower right corner on the monitor. Provide suberror code by the reply in order to diagnose the problem and to provide you the guidelines to fix the problem.
You will not find the list of the error codes on the internet. I know that Error Code: 0x81 is a "Reel" problem as I was just told by Sony Support. You should call them, have you serial number at hand when you do so. Check http://sony.storagesupport.com/ for a Telephone contact number.
Good luck,
Bruno
Sony says the unit needs a power reset (error 31). Unplug the camera, remove the battery and wait several minutes before re-attaching the battery and/or AC cable. Then power the camera back up. The 23 code says you need to use a InfoLithium battery-- apparently these are smart batteries that give data back to the camera. These error codes seem to be quite common however, and so a hardware issue may be the case. Some users have said that removing the battery while the camera is powered on will clear the codes. Others advocate "smacking" the camera, I would not however, recommend this. www.sony.com is a good place to look for more information.
You must have an E:61 or E:91 error. You will need to send it back to Sony but, that is what warranties are all about. I am sure it will be fixed quickly and for free!!
