Why do I get a black screen w/ some sound and a pic here and there, but when I FF it, I see all the video but no sound. Help !

It sounds like your mini cassette may not be seated properly in the adapter. also make sure the arms are bringing the tape forward fully. Also make sure the tape is wound snugly before inserting the cassette in the adapter. Good luck!

I would say your tapes are bad or your player has a problem. It's only an adapter.

Try using a power supply of 2000mA+. And it may be your video/power cable. Use the largest cable you can find. You may have too much resistance for the length traveled. It fixed my issue. I too thought it was the camera going bad. Its just a power hog!

Look at the number of inputs discussion. If your HDMI connections are not all pure HDMI-HDMI, then the "Digital Rights Enforcement Police" will prevent sound but not video from working. This could happen if your monitor is connected with a HDMI-DVI adapter/cable.

I haven't been able to duplicate your problem...so I am assuming you are not using software correctly (vlc player) ...if the Shadow says it is recording, it is ..and it could be a bad chip ..I would start with a new chip before I did anything else...If that fails, I would start fresh with a new reload of VLC player ..

It sounds like you have a completely different problem than what I had which was shattered,cracked glass. The phone itself had a great connection and worked normally. A black screen sounds like a different problem and so I really couldn't answer your question. Sorry.

Have you tried any older systems to see if they look okay/have lag?Anyway, thanks for the info! I may have to go for this, although I'm a bit nervous not being able to return it if there are dead pixels or whatever.

Unplug the power and plug it back in. If you don't see a picture, it might be stuck in the wrong video mode. If it is, you might not be able to fix it without plugging it into a television that supports the mode it is currently in.

should be pretty plug n' play. Maybe it's defective. Try a youtube tutorial. Good luck!

I am having issues also. WMP doesn't recognize the files, KMPlayer plays audio and video but they are out of sync (video is too slow), Quicktime plays audio and video but the video is "jerky" and not as smooth as it should be, VLC was only playing the audio. I'm running out of things to try. -_-

I just got around to making a photo D.V.D today, it does play them but make sure you use D.V.D -R media because the first D.V.D I made didn't play not sure what that one was but tried it again using D.V.D -R 16x and it worked well.

Sounds like it may be defective, mine has a faint light when it is working. Check to see if files are transferring.

My unit just arrived a couple days ago and I am unable to play video using Windows Media Center as well. I tried downloading the "latest" video drivers from Asus, which were months old - even more outdated than what was already installed! "Updating" (downdating?) the video drivers did nothing to improve the problem. The video files play perfectly on the PC using Windows Media Player; but not Windows Media Center. I get audio and a motionless garbled or black picture only.

I got the same one and it has the same problem it will take still shots but not any video.It might be a big in the software or a wire is loose some where in the camera.

I am having same problem, tried the fix that Sam suggested, laptop does not find the camera. What do you mean by "pressing play?" I don't see "play" within the software. Thanks for any help you can give.
