Hi Arathnido, we can certainly make the repair to the physical tape. MiniDV is a digital format so the damaged section will likely produce poor results. Being that the tape is a digital format, when imperfections occur, tapes will appear as you described instead of symptoms like static. It is possible that the playback device youre using is also out of spec and is not interpreting the tape properly, so it may be worth bringing it in and we can discuss next steps for recovery.

We can likely repair your tape for $20 and our transfer fee is $30
