Can you record from the vcr to the dvd?

It has been a loooong while since I used that DVD/VCR (mine broke down and was thrown out years ago), but if I remember correctly it could NOT record DVDs. I think there was a button that could copy the content of the DVD to a VCR tape, but only if the DVD wasn't copy-protected, which most are.

I don't know-but check out their manual: http://ec1.images-amazon.com/media/i3d/01/A/man-migrate/MANUAL000065138.pdf

Yes. Recording to VHS requires a converter box if your signal source is an over-the-air antenna (the DVD side of this unit is play-only).

Yes, you can record to VHS or DVD. This is not a DVR so there is no internal hard drive to record to. There is only composite and s-video inputs on the machine which have a maximum video resolution of 480i; make sure your video output source corresponds for the best picture.

Yes, you can record anything to either DVD or VCR.I have been using it to copy VCR tapes to DVD. Works very well

Yes, as long as you have a tuner or cable box. You must have a tuner or cable box with Audio/Video outputs (the white/yellow/red outputs). I use my cable box to record to the unit (VHS or DVD) every day.

Yes, the S-Video output from VCR machine can be connected to the Video in side of the DVD recorder. Sound cables are connected as normal. The sound quality from older VHS tapes may be noisy. If you have a PC with a DVD drive, and software to edit video, the simpler solution is to record the VHS tape on to the hard drive, use the sound filter, and then burn the DVD.

Yes, it can record a tv show onto a vhs tape as I do that all the time. You just have to be sure it is set on the channel of the show you are taping. I don't think you can copy a vhs tape to dvd but am not sure. I couldn't find any instructions in the book that comes with it.

No....this unit does NOT record, you have to simply purchase and run this device through a DVD/VCR Recorder...and connect the VCR/DVD unit to a monitor. That is what works for me... its low tech but it gets the job done and gets you results!

Yes, you can. This unit only records when there is a DVD in the drive bay-I originally thought there was a hard drive to buffer the recording; there is not. Great unit, have using ours for a couple of years.

Not unless you have a separate VCR. This is just a DVD recorder. I recorded all my old VCR tapes with it, from a VCR, and it works great.

Yes you can record directly to a DVD. Or if you wish first to HDD, edit it, and then copy to DVD.

The VCR needs to be hooked into the basic cable box if you have no box and your cable is direct into the back of the TV then you need to have the DVD/VCR plugged into the back of your TV (usually the cords are color coded red to red white to white, ect.) and it will say video out and video in on the VCR player recorder. Then you should be able to just push record for the show you want recorded. I hope this has helped you.

Yes, you can connect this Sony HDRPJ810/B to a dvd recorder to record DVDs. However, you may needed an AV cable (one end is a Multi/Micro USB Terminal and on the other end has an RCA terminals). This cable are not included in the package and are sold separately. Hope this helps. -Ely

Prof. Whitebread: Yes, you can hook up a VCR and record VHS tapes to DVD with this recorder. I transferred all my VHS movies (all that were not copy-protected) to DVD using this recorder. You can apparently do some editing too, although I have not tried this. You can read all about it on the downloadable owner's manual in PDF, available at this URL: http://www.tacp.toshiba.com/tacpassets-images/models/dr570/docs/dr570_om_e.pdf

What about video tapes? If I attach a VCR, can I transfer my old VHS recordings onto a DVD using this DVR Recorder?
