I know on the hvx you have to set the record mode to the same as how you captured to view it. ie if you shot 720p then you have to set the camera to 720p, if you set it to 480i then the footage wouldn't playback.

And Nothing More...... I Dont Know What To Do Please Help Me Out...
 
So you've tried the tapes on another camera and there's definately footage there?
 
Yes There Is, Its Just Not Working On My Freaking Dvx100b. I Need Settings Of The Playback Settings From One Thats Working Fine I Guess. But I Really Dont Know What To Do.... It Bugs Me Cause I Need It Tomorrow. Thats Why Am Willing To Pay Whoever Gives Me The Solution.

Any Other Ideas Bro??
 
This is leftfield but try using cleaning tape, maybe the heads are dirty and it just refuses to play???
 
Most likely the heads are dirty. This happened to me. I freaked out, I was on a shoot and very nervous. It is probably still capturing fine - especially if you've tested the tape on another deck and it plays back fine. Just clean the heads. Don't run the head cleaner tape for long. I recommend 5 seconds and then check it. Just make sure you use a dry type cleaning tape. This can happen at any time and even if you have very few hours on the cam, it's still possible. Don't worry... yet.
