HR-DVS2EU DV disc reads some of tapes with black schedules on the picture , especially that recorded by Sony DCR VX 2100E camcorders.

One DVD disc is about 1.5 hours. You have five times this amount of data, so that is 5 discs. One DVD disc will store 4.2 GB of data. You do the math.

Couple of questions,
Is it Sony DCR-TRV22 camcorder? please confirm model number.
Can you see fine and clear picture in playback of old recorded tapes in camcorder?
Let me know info to proceed.
Thanks.

Try Finalizing the DVD disc on the Camcorder or the DVD Recorder before trying to copy the DVD on the Computer.

If your Sony DCR-HC14E shows fine picture in playback of old tapes and does not give live view in camera mode to record then its CDD Imager problem that Sony will repair free of cost.

I thought so. Do you have a DV tape cleaner?

front switch microphone need full slide up or down not in meddle.
Tape some defective not recording sound
Handy cam not defective .

Please when u record some thing record in one file and try to copy in your hard disc.It will be ok.

There is no problem on your camera, DCR-HC19E is PAL system(European system) DCR-HC20 is NTSC(American system). Are you in US or Europe? I think your TV is NTSC, cause the tape recorded on DCR-HC19E you played has no color. To confirm, connect your HC20 to TV in camera mode, not recording yet, just look at the TV as your monitor, If its in color, no problem, just erase the old video recorded on the HC19E, but if its important to you, you can convert it to NTSC using a PC. thanks
