My Sony camcorder often stops and a writing appears: "Use the infolithium battery pack" It happens either when I am recording or I am watching the tape and can happen any time, after five minutes, ten minutes, etc. Then the camera switches off and when I switch it on again it works for a while, until the same writing appears again.

It sounds like your Sony DCR-DVD108 camcorder may have a problem with the battery or the power connection.
For the battery issue, you can try replacing the battery with a new one that is compatible with your camcorder. The Sony NP-FP50 or NP-FP70 are compatible batteries for your DCR-DVD108. You can purchase them online or from a camera store.
As for the "Movie Disabled" message, it may be caused by the type of disc you are using. The Sony DCR-DVD108 camcorder is compatible with DVD-R and DVD-RW discs, but it may not be compatible with all brands of discs. You may need to try using a different brand of disc to see if that resolves the issue.
Additionally, make sure that the camcorder is set to the correct recording mode, such as video mode, and that there is enough space on the disc to record the video. If none of these solutions work, there may be a problem with the camcorder itself, and it may need to be repaired or replaced.

solution 1: 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. solution 2: Turn off the camcorder. Remove the battery or disconnect the AC power adapter for 60 seconds. Insert the battery or reconnect the AC adapter. Turn on the camcorder. If the error message appears, service may be required. If your camcorder still shows the same error code, then you'll have to send in your camcorder for service additional info that might help: According to the manual, the error code C:31:xx:xx means an error that >the owner can fix by himself has occured and that by taking out the >cassette and replacing it or by disconnecting the battery pack and >fixing it back should solve the problem. Error "23" means: "S reel emergency during normal rotation", i.e. the problem is with the tape deck mechanism and specifically the supply reel.

5-digit display Cause and/or Corrective Action C:04:xx You are using a battery pack that is not an "InfoLITHIUM" battery pack. Use an "InfoLITHIUM" battery pack. C:21:xx Moisture condensation has occurred. Eject the cassette and leave your camcorder for at least one hour to acclimatize. C:22:xx The video heads are dirty. Clean the heads using the Sony V8-25CLD cleaning cassette. C:31:xx
C:32:xx A malfunction other than the above that you can service has occurred.

• Eject the cassette and insert it again, then operate your camcorder.
• Disconnect the power cord of the AC Adapter or remove the battery pack. After reconnecting the power source, operate your camcorder.

Hope this helps

Are you using the supplied battery? Recharge the battery fully and try again.

According to Sony, the 31 problem is one that requires a power reset of the camera. Turn off the camera, remove the battery, remove the AC adapter if it is in use and then wait several minutes before re-attaching the battery and/or power and turning the camera on again.
The 23 problem is a non-Sony InfoLithium battery. Apparently these smart batteries interact with the camera. According to Sony: "Replace the battery in the camcorder with a Sony® InfoLithium battery or connect the supplied AC power adapter."
