Hi guys I have some old family videos that I wanted to transfer to a DVD recently I bought a Sony Hi8, long time ago I sold my old Hi8 sony camcorder (I don't remember the model but it was Hi8) I had this problem too and is happening with this one again.

when I press play it only looks blue but when I press rewind while playing I can see the recorded video but disappears when I release the rewind button the same applies for forward, now I see that the tape says "Hi8 MP" and aside it says "8D" then "120 Hi8" and "60 8D" is there any chance that I need an 8d camera to be able to play the video? but that tape was recorded with my old Hi8 camcorder!! or maybe with an 8mm camcorder? I actually don't remember if it was recorded with Hi8 or 8 because I had another cameras and I remember they were 8 and Hi8 but I don't remember witch one I used to record with this tape.

okey now I tried to record something in the same tape like 123 testing testing and it played it fine but the old video won't show up.

any ideas??
