Isn't it strange that all of these dvc's are stuffing up at the same time, is it a conspiracy to make us pay for repairs or buy new dvc's. I was using mine most of the day on Friday and then on Saturday, the dreaded safeguard mode, error 06, missed out on all the good footage of our fishing trip, I'm spewing about that, what can we do?.....catch ya

HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM JUST WITH THE NEW YEAR FIREWORKS !!!

Here's another one to add to the list, I started having the exact same problem christmas eve, Im gonna let gravity have its way with it from my bedroom window.

I have the same problem. It sure seems weird that everyone is experiencing it around the same time.

Just a follow-up, I've been reading another forum and there's a guy who recommended tapping on the side of the camcorder -- I tried it and it worked like a charm. Got my camcorder working again!! Fabio

i was very happy when I read that you have all the answers I need, but the things you wrote doesn´t really work! me camcorer does not eject the tape in this one second after turning power on!

Amazing. It's like all of the GR-DVL300s started breaking at once. Can you beleive it? No problems with mine until today -- yep, Christmas morning. It's throwing a E04 and will not reset no matter how long it has been off. The tape carrier motor does seem to be making a different noise -- wonder if it's related to that. If anyone hears anything, please post.

I have a JVC video camera, model gr-dvl 805, and I have gotten an error, E01, and I don't know how to fix it. Is it possible to fix it yourself, or do I need to bring it in to my nearest JVC repair store?

Well we were just on our Vacation with our toddler who's about to walk. I see her about to walk and turn on the camera. This after I've been running it all night...with no problems. She starts to walk....I press record. And this error comes up. We had a chance to record our baby's first steps and nada. I want to sue them.
