Sony DVD+RW disks showing Empty or 0 bytes
After recording video the DVD+RW may show empty or blank on playback. Although you can see the burn marks on the disc as evidence of video recorded to it, the disc capacity will show 0 bytes. All is not lost, and the best thing is to leave the disk to one side. We have seen people attempt to re-finalise the disks in home video players or on their computers. The problem is often those dvd drives do not fully understand the camcorders format, , they then misinterpret the disk and often overwrite critical data and more importantly your precious video footage.

Sony DVD-R disks showing Empty or 0 bytes
After recording video on the camera you may try to play it back for review. Then you discover the disk appears blank showing no videos. An inspection of the underside shows darker rings where the data is burnt but no dvd player or computer recognises the content. Sometimes customers keep trying to finalise the disk in the camera or in other DVD players or even the computer. The only downside to this approach is that sometimes it overwrites the entire disk - especially we have seen this when using Apple Mac computers. Simply place the disk to one side and contact us for data recovery if your video is worth saving.
