Hello,

I'm new to this forum and know nothing about Digital Video, but need some help with the ubiquitous wedding video saga.

A friend is making our wedding video, but one of the tapes he used during the course of the day appears to have no data on it, but when he records a fresh piece of video on it and plays that back, the wedding video data can be clearly seen. He's spoken to a number of people / salespersons in camera shops, and loaded the cassette in other cameras, but no avail. The only thing we can conclude is a badly loaded cassette and some sort of maltracking of the record head, if the technology works like that. Does anyone have any solutions? Are their machines that the tracking can be adjusted on? Can anyone get this HD data off the cassette for us? Many thanks,

Charles Jenkinson
