black screen and no audio when trying to record

[Andy]

Help! Why do I see a black screen and hear no audio when
my movie is 'supposedly' trying to save to DV? The
camera is recording away but nothing is being recorded!

Please help, the movie is a tribute to my terminally ill
father.

Sincerely, Andy
