Hello,

This is my first post, sorry if it's in the wrong area.

I have problem with a Sony Mini DV tape I used on my honeymoon last year.
Out of 10 tapes used I have one (with the best of our footage - my wife feeding dolphins) which has horizontal lines over it.

I have been able to take poor quality screencaps from this tape from step pausing which clears the screen a little but if anyone can suggest how this tape can be "restored" if thats possible it would be a great help.

I currently edit holiday videos for family and friends as a hobby on Pinnacle Studio 9. The greatest shame is that I first started editing in prepeartion for our honeymoon and the tapes buggered!

Any suggestions appreciated.
