Dr Virago Pete's
Video Camera Repair Service
Tips and Techniques
This listing is for a service. You get email communication/phone communication with me about how to get
your Sony Camcorder to record and playback properly.
Garbled Video?
Blue Screen?
Video Cuts In and Out?
Herky Jerky Playback?
Frazzled Video?
If you threw out your camcorder or sold it in your yardsale
for cheap you should kick yourself.
Do you know what to do when you get an error code on
your screen?
Do you know there is a very simple
solution to playback problems?
Have you already run a
cleaning tape through your camcorder but it didn't help?
My solutions are kinda like magic.
But really I'm an electronics pro with 30+ years of experience.
This listing is not for the
following
1. Completely dead
2. No playback at all
3.
Can't rewind
4. Can't play
5. Busted completely
6. Eats tapes
7.
Had problems for years with this thing
My listing is for
helping those that have a recent problem- it was working yesterday; But,
today it doesn't work well anymore. It doesn't eat tapes- but it has a
playback problem playing back something that was very important.
What
I am offering in this listing is technical support for your
problem and is aimed at the everyday person just like you and me.
Money back
guaranty
If your camcorder isn't fixed by doing these simple
steps, email me your request for a money back refund and I will gladly
refund 100%. Not every camcorder is going to be fixed as some have blown
out parts, worn out video head, and damage from abuse, factory defects,
or used until they are broken and don't work anymore.
Just by doing a few simple things - it is a really truly amazing
astounding thing to have it play and record again.
You win
some and you lose some.
I'm an honest seller and telling you
all the facts and willing to refund your money. It
has to do with a technical glitch inside of the following camcorders
that shows up every once in a while:
Is yours
bad due to this factory defect? I tell you which part is loose and how
to fix it. Or is your bad due to wear/age/broken?
Email me and I
will try to determine that- drviragopete@att.net
All I ask is that you do not get mad if
it doesn't work. I didn't make the factory defect. I'm only trying to
solve it.
Applicable To The
following Sony Models
DCR TRV XXX (The "XXX" is a three digit
model number located on the bottom of your camcorder)
Camcorders
I've personally fixed using this technique:
950
460 and 460E
350
310
280
260
238E

models are the PAL International edition
Non "E" models are NTSC

herky jerky playback or blue screen flashing during playback intermixed
with some video:

Don't throw out your camcorder. Don't
sell it. You'll be glad you found this listing if you are the lucky one
to have the factory defect with a simple cure.
Some cures
require you to open your camcorder (requires a mini screwdriver and
skill in taking off the cover and following my email advice)
Some
cures don't require any disassembly.
Some cures require a Q-tip and
your careful attention to cleaning mechanism parts.
All of my cures are aimed at the
beginner to intermediate level buyer.
Bought a non-working
camcorder or your friend gave you one that doesn't work?- Then this is
not for you. My listing is for the person who had it working since
new- but today it doesn't play or record properly. Please - no junk.
BEFORE YOU PAY PLEASE
SEND ME A DETAILED MESSAGE WITH MODEL NUMBER AND SYMPTOMS OF RECORD AND
PLAYBACK. I WILL GLADLY TELL YOU IF YOUR MODEL HAS A GOOD CHANCE OF
BEING REPAIRED. IF IT IS OBVIOUS TO ME THAT YOUR CAMCORDER DOESN'T FIT
THE DESCRIPTION - I WILL TELL YOU NOT APPLICABLE.
It can't hurt to try this.
It just
might restore your camcorder.
Works for many but not all
formerly "Bad" camcorders.
Don't let a repair shop fix it
for $200 when you can fix it in a few minutes (time varies
depending on your handiness.)
Some people can fix it in 30
seconds or less!
