Panasonic DMR-ES20 zeros error?

[mike919]

Hello, I was using my Panasonic to capture some videos yesterday.

I turned it off, and went to sleep. The next day arrived and now its doing this.

It just won't power up, nothing shows up on the capture device.

How do I fix this?

Video attached is the problem.

Edit: The model is a Panasonic DMR-ES20 DVD Recorder acting as a TBC, I cannot afford a fancy pants one.

000000 is the generic "broken" warning.

Caps are actually not the likely issue on the 000000. Caps issues on ES10/15 usually result on no power at all, not power with 000000. The 0'd error is generally a board level fault, something fried.

ES20 does not have any TBC inside. ES10, 15, 25, and a few combo'd decks. But not the LSI ES20. The 10/15 is best, it gets worse from there.

Ah, thanks for the information. I just ordered a DMR-ES15 instead.
