No really problem but I lost my manual and cannot remember how to erase completely a recorded mini dik. Besides advice which I appreciate in advance, where I could get and download that owners manual, preferably in Spanish. thanks

On my DVR there is a "protect" option that will prevent me from deleting a recording. You have to press the "protect" button again to unprotect it.Once unprotected you should be able to delete the recording.

Sorry your unit is a micro and mini cassette transcriber but I remember it does not have option for erase you can get an a eraser at http://www.tvps.com/Products/ECS-ME20-Mini--Micro-Cassette-Eraser---New__VE-ME-20.aspx and this also extend the life of your transcriber any way is really simple and a quick solution to your problem.

You need to use longer tapes. The DER-11 is a DVCAM deck which when recording, uses a faster tape speed then mini DV. Think of your older VCR's. They had SP, two hours, and EP or SLP, which would be six hours. The SP speed would give a better picture. DVCAM is more like an SP recording except digital and a lot better. More information is laid down on the tape.

You'll have to jump up to the full size DVCAM tapes in order to record the full hour.

Select the file, then press erase and follow the display. If you hold down erase, you should get an erase all option. Also you can select Format in the menu.
