mabey its wet on the inside, my dcrtrv460 would like, never work if it was humid out

usually when that happens on my cam, the tape has ran out

my guid to fixing your cam
smack it
change tape
clean out the gears (we had alot of tape in there for awhile without knowing and it fucked up our camera alot)
if it's cold outside that hurts as well

thats only if the tape is playing back with wierd blue lines or some kind of static or isn't playing at all
but yeah it can't hurt

hmm, thats wierd, but I guess if the cam can't read the tape it might eject it
if this is somthing other than panasonic then it is probably doing this, im only speaking from a broad knowlege of cams, I don't know the brand he is using
but like I said, it can't hurt
