Hello, Can everyone help me? I am in the middle of shotting my project. Last night, when i reviewed the tape i shot two days ago in the VCR mode, I saw a lot of strips crossed the picture. I wonder if something is not right on my dvx 100b. I am sure the tape is ok when i shot because i reviewed it after shotting. I bought my dvx100b 6 months ago.

Thank very much in advance!
 
Also, a framegrab will help, showing exactly what it is you're talking about.

You'll need a head-cleaning cassete or have the heads professionally cleaned.
 
Thanks very much for the help. I just checked again to see what exactly looks like. Now, everything is ok. For the future, I am going to get a head-cleaning cassete. Thanks so much!
 
With a head cleaning cassette, only use it for about 5 seconds. They are abrasive and can possibly damage your heads if you use it for much longer than that.
 
A note on the blue lines. It happened to me once in capture, I cleaned my capture deck's head and all returned to normal.

Recently I had a tape that did the same. I cleaned the heads, nothing. Cleaned again, nothing. Third time (probably a bad idea),nothing. Turns out, the first 30 seconds of that tape was just F*d.

Tape in trash.
