My ZR30mc video recorder will not eject cassette

I'ts likely that the record sensor that pushes on the tab on the tape is bent or broken. Making the VCR think you are trying to record on to a protected tape.

Sounds like and error message to me.
Best to take it to a technician for diagnosis.

Have you fixed it?

SMACK THE CAMERA ON EITHER SIDE REAL HARD
? what does it mean plz?
can you explain for me plz?!!

On Canon camcorders, "remove the tape" error is due to no data reading by video head. You may have clogged heads or somewhere along the area. Initially, I would try to insert good clean "video head cleaning tape" and run for about 7 seconds and see if that resolve the symptom. If it persists, it need a help from a technician. Good Luck.

Sony camcorders C:31:23 error
Take the battery out and turn selection switch to camera and then turn it off. Put the battery back in and its working again.
if that doesn't work try
Try smacking the side of the camera relatively hard with the palm of your hand. Eject the tape and reinsert. You may need to do this a couple of times. good luck
please mark the post with a fixya

Use a Sony head cleaning tape they work perfectly and you let them run there 10 second corse. Then your sharp will run perfectly...

I had the same problem and solved it by removing the battery to allow the camera to reset. Worked fine after that.

The problem is usually caused by no drum rotation. Have it serviced.
