Frage von Scorer:Hello everyone!
My Camocorder of Sony (SonyDCR camcorder TRV-18 ") has several problems:
-> When a recording is played back during the subsequent play no sound
-> The computer recognizes only the memory stick, which means I can not make films transferred
I'm not quite sure what to do.
Should I send in the camcorder (s.welche address?)
Or are other solutions?
Schonmal Thank you in advance for the help:)

Hello Felix,
First I would try to limit the errors that occur. If you should come out of it that you have to enter the unit for repair, you can at least attach a detailed error description.
If you are a MiniDV tape recorded with the TRV18 have comes when you play any sound. No sound was recorded, for example, because a connected, external microphone was turned off? Or is the sound recording or reproducing only the (broken what can be easily examined with a second camcorder)?
The second part of your question: How did you get the camcorder s.den Calculator connected if it can be accessed only on the Memory Stick? But hopefully not via USB ... see
FireWire FAQ">1st (b) Firewire or USB?

Thanks for the help: D
To 1 I made a short recording to the Memory Stick. When playing the recording from the camcorder, no sound is played, but s.den on connecting PC (so Memory Stick is detected), the sound is played! That means only playback at the camcorder does not work. I guess that applies to a normal recording on a tape the same thing.
to 2 Unfortunately I have only USB: (The

Antwort von Markus:
Hello Felix,
if the built-in speaker is not broke, then the volume could have been turned down to zero. ;-)
The Firewire cable, I can recommend you very much. On the one hand you will need no special drivers and other more then you are synonymous with regard to the capture software is no longer restricted.
Antwort von Scorer:
So the volume is at 100%
What shall I do now?
The playback feature is not playing the sound s.and connect via USB with the computer (WinXP) does not work.
Should I try it once on a PC with FireWire port? If it would work out there, if it were true schonmal good, but I would need it even be repaired anyway.
Can someone to me regarding the repair (address, etc.) to help or there are other options?

Hello,
the contribution is rather confusing.
So on Memory Stick included Stillimage's or movies (320x240) with USB to dub. If the drivers make problems, then buy yourself a memory card reader, ca (9 ¬) - map comes in - New removable disk - double click - and the pictures and Mpeg movies are there.
The film is the Mini DV cassette as described with Firewire carried out because the TRV 18 not yet "full quality video transfer" is fit. If it is created with a USB but with properties Resolution320x240 not like normal 720x576.
Of course, you have to be located at dubbing to the playback mode.

Hello Felix,
do you hear a sound when the camcorder is connected via an AV cable with the Television? Then the sound would at least be in order.
If present (no sound but a picture to see), then check it once, if perhaps there another adapter into the microphone input jack of your camcorder. Then the device would in fact record any sound.
With regard to possible service addresses will you may, on the

@ Jan: So about Memory Stick is erkanntm there are no problems, but I can not even take my videos to the Memory Stick ...
Whether it is via Firewire, I do not know. I think I'm going to go to a friend and test it.
Nevertheless, would remain the problem that the playback function, and the connection via USB is faulty.
@ Mark: Well the sound is indeed in order. I've been tested, as I recorded a short video on the MemorySti9ck and have played s.PC: sound works but the sound does not!
The list I'll watch my time, thank you!
So I will describe the malfunction of the camcorder + pack it into a package and send s.den nearest service partner.
For the exact description of the error before but I will go again at a friend and test whether the connection is synonymous with FireWire or damaged.
Antwort von Scorer:
Ok, so I really have always been thought that the camcorder has a FireWire port, but he has not: P
I have written to the company from Karlsruhe, and that they answered:
Very geehrtr Mr. Nunn,
This camera will be repaired exclusively of Sony itself.
With best regards

Antwort von Jan:
I think I was now a 18 or TRV's TRV was 19 in the hand.
The Firewire is just left of the USB time! Not overlook the fact, too - DV.
Synonymous funny would be a Sony Mini DV without FW, I do not know .....

Antwort von Scorer:
OK, you are right! 've Only seen ... no FireWire characters no preference!
You would think me stupid for ech;)
A FireWire cable is not included (but did not find one, and looked at the delivery).
What should I do now with the camera?
First, buy a FireWire cable and try it then that?
-> Ifs work, then I would not need more USB port, but the Wiedergabefuntkion is still damaged.
So yes, I do kanns like this:
The day after tomorrow morning (a holiday), I buy the FireWire cable to the camcorder from probiers And if the connection works, then I do not need to send in the camcorder. In future I will just connect the camcorder via FireWire with the computer and processed the broken sound playback is not so bad next, as is admitted before the s.PC And then I just give up the instant viewing on the camcorder.
Antwort von Jan:
No company gives away so synonymous not like something, and know you have not synonymous 4 pole (laptop, DVD recorder), or 6 pin (normal tower PC)?
Otherwise, buy it (in a market like eg Saturn, where you media etc) you can return it within 13 days and your money back (to make tens of people in my day) - it usually costs around ¬ 10 or so affordable.
You need a Firewire cable synonymous take because you have only so with the TRV 18, the best video quality on your computer.
The lady who was with me today (TRV 18.19) had the same questions, so it happens to many people.
