no to ask a stupid question, but are you sure you unpaused it after you hit record?

I agree, you most likely did not hit actual record.  You most likely just put it in monitor mode....

actually this could be the result of the Sony misload that happens at times....what type of tapes were you using?

I held down record and hit play and it sure did look like it was recording.  I think when I rewound the tape I hit mode which switched to erase. Any thoughts??

I didn't even know such a thing existed.  If it does, it must be a paid to do, as I haven't even hit that button on my m1!

I will take a look when I get home...but I have never noticed such a function on my d100

it was in monitor mode, apparently. :( ye if you click mode youll see erase come up on the right side of the screen, you may have to press it 2-3 times but its there.  I didnt hit pause after rec so I believe that where my problem is.....live & learn.

As a suggestion, I will usually record approx. 10 seconds of crowd noise prior to the actual start of the show.  Just to make sure everything loaded properly and recording correctly.... :headphones:

I know it doesn't help you much in this case, just some food for thought.

Make certain that once recording should begin, that the display reads "write".  The recording time and metetering should be there as well.  After abou 10 seconds or so of recording, re-wind and confirm recording actually took place.

one thing with sony dats is that you HAVE to let it go through all of its loading activities (on my d100, it can take ~20 seconds) before you hit record.  Otherwise, it is likely you will have loading issues.  I usually hit pause/record, it goes through all of this, and then when the show starts, unpause it...ready to go.
