Make sure the Optura is in VCR not record mode. If it's still not working, send it to Canon for repair.
You might want to see if you can get a loaner from Canon or the store you bought it from.

It's on the same switch you use to turn on the camcorder. Flip it in the opposite direction to go into Play (VCR) mode - that's the option with a blue dot.

Also when you're in VCR playback mode, make sure the little slide switch is set to "tape" not "card."

Well neither of them were it.
I contacted the man who i bought the camera from (lives about 5 minutes from me and a canon rep) he told me it was a clogged head. We put a head cleaner thru it and bam it was fixed. from me using the tape that got eaten, it clogged the head!
