Digital video camcorder are recording signals in very thin line (as thin as 1/8 of a hair.) Therefore, following symptoms may appear if video heads become dirty even a little. Video heads may become dirty under the following conditions: (1) When using the camcorder in humid or hot places. (2) When using cassette with damaged or dirty tape. (3) When using the camcorder in dusty places. (4) When using the video heads without cleaning them for a long time. Note: Before you make important recording, clean the video heads and make a test recording first. We also recommend cleaning the video heads after use before storing the camcorder.

Sound choppy

HI, how does it game?

Can you play games on the system for more than "10 min" without issue? I ask, because gaming should cause more issues with overheating than watching Netflix.

Choppy sound

If all media players are closed, Open the Control Panel> Sounds> open, click on configure, test. Any Problem? Now when you say "choppy sound" The audio is on what, using what? With limited info it's difficult to give a informed solution. FOR INSTANCE, I was watching a movie/music, online video, youtube....etc. with (your software) and the sound was choppy. Or, I was on IE and watching a Video, music, etc. Lets say you open Itunes and play a song, sound is choppy?

There is a conflict between the data card and your sound system or it may require shared files that current sound system uses, there for muting it out so full access is acquired.

I have a Samsung LN-4061F with a TiVo HI Def DVR. When viewing HD programming the picture becomes choppy during action scenes. For example, during sporting events when the picture pans with the action,...

If your using a set top cable or satelite box then it is an issue with your HD service. Call them . They may need to swap out the box and check the signal. If you have no box then you may wana boost or/and filter your signal. You can purchase a signal amplifier online or at any radio shack or best buy. You may want to ask SAMSUNG if there is a firm ware upgrade for your TV.

Choppy recording and playback

If the heads become dirty, “NEED HEAD
CLEANING” appears during recording. During
playback, moreover, the following symptoms
appear.
≥Mosaic-like noise appears partially or the
sound is interrupted.
≥Black or blue mosaic-like horizontal stripes
appear.

When normal playback cannot be performed
even after the head cleaning
One possible cause is that normal recording
could not be performed because the heads were
dirty at the time of recording. Clean the heads,
and perform recording and playback again. If
normal playback can be performed, the heads are
clean. Before an important recording, be sure to
conduct a test recording to make sure that normal
recording can be performed.
≥If the heads become dirty soon after cleaning,
the problem may be the tape. If so, try another
cassette.
≥During playback, the picture or sound may be
interrupted momentarily, but this is not a
malfunction of the Camcorder. (One possible
cause is that the playback is interrupted by dirt
or dust that momentarily adheres to the heads.)

No image during replay -- sharp mini dv VL-NZ50

a cleaning cassette ( the red ' x ' ) will help : if cleaning works ? retire your old tapes , or your heads may need replacement - sooner rather than later ;
