Yes, you can record movies on them and music to cd and dvd, the drive comes with the cord, so you don't need another cord.

Good answer! Easy connect and fully functional external drive that can be used with multiple devices. Purchased a year ago for the Win 7 11.6 Acer Aspire and it is great for the Acer Switch 11, too. It isn't for 'heavy duty' use . . . light weight and the price is right! hs

Acer 720 is Chromebook and this unit is not tested with Chromebook yet. Also this unit is a CD burner and DVD writer so you won't be able to burn DVDs.

I'm not sure. If you plug it in and it's recognized by your chromebook then it should work. If it plays music cds but not DVD then download a DVD media player.

You can record movies and tv shows with this machine, but beware, the machine I bought had a defective dvd player. I bought it for around $90. Sometimes a bargain isn't. Good luck!

You have to make sure that you are using the correct cd. The cds that you use to record music are different from the ones that you use to record movies. If you try to put a movie on a disc that you use to record music there will not be enough room on the disc.

You'll need to purchase your own HDMI cable. The DVD player only came with component cables.

Sure, not a problem. Just run cables from the video, left and right audio outputs on the back of your VCR to their respective inputs on the DVD Recorder.

And remember you'll need to feed audio separately. One other thing...make sure your monitor can switch between rgb and YPbPr, your dvd player might be able to do that switch too.

You will have to "assign" the component being used as a component input (explained in the manual). It will do component and analog, like your older dvd player, cd player, ect. No s-video. It will play it through the hdmi, but the receiver will not convert the signal to hd.

Yes, this is a non-HD device. Just for clarification you don't record from a TV, you record from a standard definition analog input source (e.g. composite [video, right audio, left audio] antenna, or cable (not 100% sure, but I think it has a cable tuner). You will hook up your TV to the DVD recorder, your TV will just function as an output device.

I didn't buy it for recording. I bought it to play audiobooks on cd for my class. It was substandard.

After checking the instruction book, I don't think it's possible but I'm no expert. There's no DVD player or recorder on this.I also have a Magnavox HDD & DVD Recorder with digital tuner. That one would be able to record to the HDD.

This means you need to connect to the cable box to record. We only use it to play DVD/CD. We never use it to record from our TV. We have no problems playing DVD/CD.

I do not know. What I did was google what I needed to do. DVD Component output to HDTV Component Input.

there are rca inputs on the back for bd/dvd, sat, vcr, I think tape and one other maybe aux. Google the model number for manual there should be a picture of the back to show connections

that would depend on what cables you have and what ports your laptop has. This t.v. needs an a/v hook-up (the yellow one is video, white is sound, red is power) So if you can find a cable to transfer a/v to hdmi or vga (that depends on laptop's ports) Try cable made to connect dvd to pc

I think it depends on what your DVD has as an input vs. what the output from the computer is. Sorry I'm not more help, but without looking at it, it's tough to gauge. Sometimes even when they connect up, the device to which you input won't record.
