You can tell if the data is there by the tape counter. If the counter

The counter continues to run. In fact the audio is still there, but a
gray screen for video.
Now according to you the data is still there but how do I recover it.
Right now I am the only one Iknow witha 8mm video camera. I'm
thinking I can sneak it into BestBuy and play it on one of their
machines.
