helicopter shot null and voidPosted by J.Corbett
It displays every where like this. I have tried to play it on 3 different cameras. I know that the footage is probly gone but the audio is perfect. I dont get it.

DVCpro on DV deck that doesnt handle DVCpro?
What format was it supposed to be? For instant answers to more than one hundred common FCP questions, check out the LAFCPUG FAQ Wiki here : [www.lafcpug.org]
At one instance it plays half the screen. Then when i rewind and play the same thing it plays maybe a 4th. the tc isnt being recognized sometimes (80%). Sometime the sound is perfect when its not perfect then it completely gone. It will hardly play the same way twice.
could the vibration of the helicopter cause this? """ What you do with what you have, is more important than what you could do, with what you don't have." > > > Knowledge + Action = Wisdom - J. Corbett 1992 """"
Have you checked whether it was recorded on LP (LongPlay)? If your camera/deck is different then the LP mode from a different source might be another reason for the screen/TC breakup.

I held the camera during in the heli.
i own the camera and it is always in sp mode. i have never used a tape twice ever. I clean my heads about once after every 8 - 10 tapes. I did try to play it on lp and got the same result. It was recorded in 60i or whatever the default interlace set up is for a dvx100b. I recorded with the same camera a few minutes ago and could not recreate the problem. when i rewind the tape to the beginning i get " auto off s_reel lock" never seen that before. I see it when rewinding to the beginning in vtr mode for playback.

Well thats just what i needed at such a critical time. Would a camera shop be able to do this in a relatively short amount of time?

Yeah isn't always the way - the worst possible time for that to happen.
It is a relatively easy fix - just a supply reel lock. Unless the camera was dropped and the transport was damaged, they should be able to fix it. I think this is quite common on the 100bs. The thing is, the camera will keep doing this at intervals until you get it seen to, so it's a necessary evil.
Did you already try playing the tape in a proper deck rather than cameras used as decks? Or taken it to a post house or a video engineer to see if it's salvageable?
If all the footage is like this, period, you might want to just buy some helicopter stock footage if you don't have project-specific elements in the shot. www.derekmok.com
So would you guys say that i could probably get by with using the dvx that has this problem just 3 more times.
I have a shoot this evening at 4pm (ballet) and then saturday @ 9:30am(interview) and another at 3pm(mayor). Would you take a chance on this type of problem. I could reschedule everything but what i have today. How long does it normally take the repair to be done? Is there any cali repair shop that can do the repair pronto? I kinda think that panasonic will take 5-8 weeks which i cant afford.

Not unless you want more of the same useless footage.
Uh...no. Reschedule. Rent / borrow a cam for tonight
Call a repair shop & ask them...different issues / different repair times
Cali's a big state. Google the city / Panasonic Authorized Service Center When life gives you dilemmas...make dilemmanade.
Well it goes to the hospital monday. Then on tuesday i am gonna buy another dvx100b i saw one for 2200.
I guess this is my new hemorrhoid till its fixed, and it pushes my project back 1 month. looks like heavy sales and one cam shoots till it comes back. BTW, i think that bens rendition of your banner is perfect. At least it says that you are a lady which i didn't know till he did the banner. I also thought that johan was a odd way of spelling joanne and he's a dude. wow """ What you do with what you have, is more important than what you could do, with what you don't have." > > > Knowledge + Action = Wisdom - J.
