Yes, it records to DVD+R, DVD-R, DVD+RW and DVD-RW disks. NO...It cannot record to dual layer disks, however it has 6 recording modes (1 to 6 hours) Refer to following links for more information: (1) USER MANUAL: http://www.magnavox.com/product/download.php?model=MDR537H (2) MAGNAVOX FORUM AT AVS: http://www.avsforum.com/t/940657/magnavox-537-535-533-515-513-2160a-2160-2080-philips-3576-3575

This unit can record to DVD+RW, DVD+R, DVD-RW and DVD-R. Does not handle double layer disks. The RW varieties can be written and rewritten. The R varieties can only be written to once. All are 4.7Gb but you can choose several recording modes that will give you from one hour (best quality) to 6 hours (poorest quality) recording times per disk.

T.R.MillerAre you saying that you can continually record over DVD+RW (read-write) discs?

Not that I am aware of. This is the second batch of 8X double layer from this company that does not work for coping backup movies to DVD. As far as just storing data they work just fine.

According to the manual for the DMR-EA-18. the following disks can be used: DVD-RAM, DVD-R, DVD-R DL, DVD-RW, +R, +r DL, and +RW. DVD-R DL is usable, but finalization is needed, and it will record only 4:3 aspect ratio. -R DL disks can only be played on equipment compatible with these discs. DVD RAM is rewritable, can record a 16:9 picture, and can record broadcasts that allow only one copy. So the answer is yes, but.

I didn't use that feature. However, as one that uses a similar Magnavox system to record DVDs & playback, I would say yes. Because, the DVD will usually automatically format first before it starts it's first recording. If others systems utilize same formatting (and it's usually universal), yes.

use free software IMGBurn - just need to learn a bit but it's the best and it can write to dual layer [i use imgburn to specifically write dual layer single sided DVDs[DVD9]Nero is crappy if you use substandard discs but imgburn is the best - only your writer needs to be perfect to get the job done rest leave it to imgburn

I assume you want to record from the VHS side to the DVD side of your combo, then no you cannot use it. If, however, you are using a different machine to play a video and are using the combo only to record on, then yes, you can use it.

After looking at the manual that came with mine, I think you car record from one to the other. The manual does not specify a + or -. It just states a "recordable CD, DVD or Blu-ray", so I would think you could record from from one DVD to another without any problems. Hope this helps.

Matthew, I use it only for a few limited features. I cannot comment on that feature. I use it to print on DVD & CD'r's exclusively. I think the answer is no though. Sorry!

Probably not. The owner's manual doesn't even acknowledge the existence of dual-layer discs.

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

Thank you for your question this machine will copy dual layer disc. DVD, CD or Mdisc DVD. Please make sure the master disc is not copy protected because this unit will not copy copy protected disc.

yes, it records on both, not at the same time. And it can switch back and forth between if you want to record something on one and the next thing on the dvd.

It will burn (and play) cd's and dvd's (including dual layer - I burned my first one yesterday). The box states DVD + R SL/DL, DVD + RW/-RW, DVD-RAM, CD-R/RW. Hope this helps.
