SonyDCR HC 32

[Dilip123]

Hello,
My sONy DCR HC 32 was functioning properly. Recently it has failed to read the recorded videos on the LCD monitor. I used the cleaning tape and tried again. The video appeared for a few seconds with horizontal bars and the whole disappeared. I am scared of using the cleaning tape again and again as the manufacturers discourage it. What could be problem with my handycam?

Have you tried connecting the camera to a TV and viewing the video? Do you have any probelms with the LCD screen when you are recording? Just trying to eliminate the LCD screen as the issue. I would advise against using the cleaning tape again as repeated use will do more harm than good.
