How do you record more than one home video (that is in vhs form) to a DVD-R disk?

This you use to digitize the video and you can use a DVD burning software to record multiple movies to one DVD. I think digitizing it is more helpful then put it directly to DVD. I never used the feature of putting it directly on DVD yet because I wanted to pick and chose what I wanted. Also if you want more than one movie on a DVD get larger capacity DVDs.

Check this out: Magnavox MDR557H/F7 1Terabyte Hard Disc Drive Digital Video Disc Recorder I connected an old vhs player and copied my tapes onto the drive. I could edit them, etc. and then transfer them to DVDs. It is great to have for every day use. You would love it!! You can record tv etc.

Well you don't "record over" on a dvd recorder (it's not like video tape). You can press the "top menu" button on the remote. Then you delete an existing recording to make more room for new recordings.

You will need a RCA-USB adapter and a video capture software such as http://www.amazon.com/Easy-VHS-DVD-3-Plus/dp/B006GOFW3E/ref=sr_sp-atf_title_1_1?s=software&ie=UTF8&qid=1405401992&sr=1-1&keywords=roxio+easy+vhs+to+dvd

These are two different formats used by DVD recorders. The -R is the most common. Some recorders handle both formats but some can only record to one of them. You should check the instructions for your specific recorder to see which format(s) it can use.

No,sorry it does not work that way ,when you make a dvd from your vhs ,you can make more than one copy .It will ask you if you wish to burn more copies ,you can do as many as you want before closing out .

I have not done so personally, But I believe you can do that with any vhs/dvd machine So long as you have it connected properly. You have to be sure that your DVR gets connected to the VHS/DVD player, Then you should be able to record onto a VHS tape, not a DVD cuz it's not a burner. Hope that helps.

I don't believe you can. I had 2 of these VCR"s and they never worked properly. They always ate the tapes and sounded watery. I ended up buying a Toshiba and haven't had a problem in years, but it does not record video to DVD. That feature would be in a model costing a few hundred dollars.

All modes are available on both. I copy VHS tapes to HDD and from there to DVD after editing on the HDD. I always record to HDD in the same mode I plan to use on the DVD. The DVD burn goes faster without having to convert modes.

Yes when you are in "VR" mode...not "video" recording mode for DVD-RW and DVD+RW disks. I just did it using a -RW formated in VR.RP

I do not store them and it does not appear to be ideally built for VHS format. You could do it but it would be space inefficient.

It depends on the lengths of the DVDs in question, and the time recording setting you put on the DVD you are recording onto. That is, you can choose the DVD to be able to record for 1 hour, 2 hours, 2.5 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, and 6 hours. Simply record the first VHS, based again on its length and the DVD time setting you have chosen, and record the next one, etc. I have recorded several VHS tapes on one DVD many times.
