Hi! Does it come with all the wires necessary to attach to tv and convert vhs to dvd and play finished vhs and dvd? Thanks for any assistance

Yes it does. But since it plays on to TV there is little need to convert to DVD. The quality of vhs is low so other than archiving there is not much reason to convert.

I believe so; it comes with the wires necessary to hook to the TV or cable box (the input), and the recording/dubbing is done internally. If somebody wanted to get creative and attach additional recorders (which might require additional cords) it would be fairly simple but not at all necessary. I have not had any trouble hooking this up to any of my TVs, cable boxes, or other tuners. It's a fairly low-end machine (you are not going to get studio quality discs or tapes) but it does what it claims to do, which is to make adequate copies of VHS tapes to DVD.

it comes with wires with the red,yellow, and white tops. these might be called rca. I use an hdmi cable which is the only cable you need,of course, the tv has to have an hdmi connection.

No. Buy a DVD/VHS combo recorder. It will only play VHS but will record DVD and transfer to DVD, not expensive. What you are looking at converts movie film and I don't know how It works. I sent mine back because it requires you to have a movie projector or a digital movie camera.

This product for me has done everything it has advertised it will do. While, I have not yet used it for your purposes, it says it will do that. The people that have used it to transfer VHS to DVD say that it works great.

It has YRW, component, video. No S-video. I have not watched VHS on it. I have only a Blue Ray DVD w/wifi and access to a variety of streamed content and internet services.

Yes, that is how I'm using it. Obviously, when you dub vhs to dvd, it is of no use, as the copying doesn't go through the jacks, rather it is done internally. But, you can record to the DVD from a protected source and it works fine.

this won't work on the computer. you need to attach it from your vhs to a dvd recorder. I hope this helps ;)

I wondered the same thing, but owned one before so was quite certain it did. comes with everything you need, I went from one channel though the shortest wire possible to four channels, and split that off to another TV. It works great and is well worth the money.

it comes with its own cables. Just color match them from the dvd to the tv..simple...: >

Yes and know, adding speakers and perhaps your cable box and a DVD player is not hard (HDMI wires). The more important part is performing the calibration check which does check if you have the speaker wires correctly connected - can take a few tries but if patient, you can do it.

Hello..Not sure about VHS to DVD..I have failed at that as well..But these are great for backing up DVDs to use not to danger the original copy

If you are asking about VHS transferred to PC and then make a DVD I have had no luck with the programs they advertise to transfer to the PC. I have a Panasonic VHS copier to DVD which is what is left on the market I used to use Go-Video which was a great machine but they are gone. Then to make DVDs I use AVS programs to convert Blessings, Rita

Yes, it is able to dub from VHS to DVD and from DVD to VHS. Great for preserving personal videos. (If the original is copy-protected, the device will detect this, stop recording, and give you an error message.)

The Vizio has those connections plus the HDMI. You would have to hook up 5 cables the 3 tri-color for video and the white and red cable for the audio. Should work fine. Don't forget you have to go to input on remote to change input for your vcr/dvd.

This item will work. However, to do the same job it'll be cheaper to get an old VHS player though. Most of VHS players have coax in and RCA out and they demodulates better than this product.

Yes it does. I have it connected to a vcr and it will record and play back. You can set the vcr to record just like a regular tv program. It is connected like a tv/vcr/cable or dish set up. I have it set to input / line and when i record i set the vcr to input / line. The only thing is it is hard to get vhs tapes. I like the 10 hour ones but have more luck with finding 8 hour tapes. I tried setting it up with a dvr but have not figured out how to get it to play back yet.

I never purchased this item; I do have a "lite-on" vhs/dvd combo player. You need to be more specific w/your problem so someone who DOES know about electronics can help. Are you putting in the vhs when you get this message on your TV screen? Have you made sure the tape is re-wound? Do you have the wires connected to the right source on back of your TV? It's very difficult to help without all these questions answered first. I recommend taking it or calling a TV repair shop; they're very helpful over the phone most times; if they're not, call the next one on your phone book or PC yellow pages.

yes you can use rca video and audio cables for old tvs and it does have a hdmi out put but you can only record is SD mode not Hi Def. However beware most things on tv are scramble now so recording with dvd doesn't work with many channels Vhs will record anything but this is not the best recorder or player I am very dissatisfied with it.
