This unit only copies home made VHS tapes onto a DVD, the one I had before would copy any VHS onto a DVD . What a bummere!!!!

This unit dubbs VHS to DVD. You only need a video cable out to a monitor to view. You can also dub your cam corder to DVD. I burned all my family videos to DVD. Works awesome.

no, only to VHS, and that's not even reliable. Mine would quit recording before the programmed stop time, and this was when it was still pretty much brand new. (within 2-3 months)

Sorry, don't really know. I have a JVC recorder to change tapes to dvd and I used two of them and does not work.

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

If your Vhs player only has RCA jacks you will need an adapter or special cable but yes it will work

Yes you can. The ZV427MG9 DVD functions as a regular DVD/VHS player thru the HDMI in addition to its recording functions.

Depends on what you want to do and what kind of inputs your TV has. If you want it to play VHS and DVD on your TV, it has HDMI, S-Video, and composite video outputs. If your TV can accept one of these, then that works. It does not have an RF receiver. So, If you want to record incomming television, it won't work. If you want to copy VHS to DVD (the reason I bought it), then all you need a monitor (your TV or computer monitor (HDMI can be cheaply converted to a monitor's DVI)) so you can read and operate it's menues.

Not sure if you're still looking for an answer. But if you still want to know, the answer is "no". This is not a tool to transfer or import clips from one format to another. You will have to first convert your VHS movies into digital format before you can use this software for editing.

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.

Old VHS? This unit is what you need to bypass the copy protect on the VHS tape. It won't be the best quality picture, but it allows you totransfer to a DVD

I'm in the same boat --- have lot's of 8Hi camcorder tapes I would like to convert to DVD --- will this machine do this function?

Yes. But it's not going to have the crystal clear picture of a hd DVD but a much better picture quality than of a regular VHS player. The toshiba player has great picture quality for both VHS and DVDs. Thank you for your question.

Mine is connected directly to the TV, don't even have cable! So I guess the answer would be "no". Just don't expect the VHS recorder to last longer than a couple months.

Yes, this device allows copying from a VHS tape to your computer and then to a DVD.It's a 3 or 4 step process, but it does work!

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.
