  Posted by Arty Gold on June 27, 2006 at 8:14 pm

  hi guys…
  we are trying to record some footage from a dvd player onto a mini-dv tape in our dsr-11
  (we do this alot)

  the problem today…
  everytime i push play and record
  the red caution light flashes and the machine stops the tape

  i tried cleaning it
  it plays correctly

  just won’t record…

  any answers ?

  I don’t have this deck, but I would guess either the tape record enable slider is in the protected position, or you have a moisture condensation warning.

  You can get a PDF of the manual here if you don’t have one:

  Sounds like copy protection. Keep it legal!

  no all that was kosher…

  after a bit of research…
  it appears that it was a humidity thing….
  according to sony…that can happen with the dsr

  they said to keep the door open and let it run for an hour…

  That is if you DSR-11 still has its door. If your’s does… you are in the minority.
