I purchased a perfectly fine looking Sony minidv tape in Mexico (Sony Premium DVM60 ME). I recorded what I thought to be about an hour of vacation video and when I got back to the USA to watch it something strange occured. It appeared from the time display on my camcorder (Samsung SCD27) that the tape was wound up backward? I had to use fast forward to rewind it. I cannot see any video. Everything is working fine except that tape. The two other tapes I recorded on (bought in the USA) work fine. Any ideas on this? The tape doesn't say NTSC or PAL on it but I don't have the wrapper anymore. Could it be PAL (for Euro's visiting Mexico)? Thanks for any feedback.
