Sony Handycam video Hi8 - not playing or recording video

hi - i have a sony handycam video Hi8. We haven't used it in a while and when I now play some of the tapes, all the tapes do not play and show a blue screen. I tried recording on those tapes and nothing seems to record. Please could you advise what could be the issue?

 

The tapes have been recorded before so not sure why they are not playing? pls help.
