Hi Andrew, the DVD recorder has the capability to record 2 hours or more depending on the recording mode used. -Vincent

I used mine to record a recorded movie to another DVDR. I had trouble going to the beginning since it does have a resume play. I even took the disk out and shut off my player. the disk I was playing kept starting over

No. The recorder has an on-off switch on one side. Once you turn it on, it will continue to record until it runs out of space, charge or you turn it off. It records in 4 hour chunks, so if you leave it running for 8 hours, for instance, you will get two 4 hour files.

If you can connect to the output rca port of your tv tuner. Since the dvd recorder does not have a tuner it cannot record directly.

No, the unit can not record to a DVD player directly. You may be able to transfer the file to another device (like a computer) and then convert it to a DVD, but this would not be a simple task.

No, this is not a DVD recorder. This unit can only play back DVD. Only the VHS part of this device can record

What do you mean 3 hour topic? If you mean you want to record something to the hard drive that is 3 hours then certainly. There is TONS of space. However, if you're wanting to take that show & burn it on a DVD you will need to divide the show into two parts & burn each part on a separate DVD. The length of the DVD is 2 hours with about 7 minutes to spare. I hope this answered your question. If not e-mail me.

Yes, however you may want to consider purchasing a longer life battery if you want to film something that lasts longer than an hour or two.

I'm not exactly sure what you are asking. I've never use a stand alone DVD recorder. It may work if it had a cat5e connection. If you will give me more specifics, I may be able to provide a better answer.

yes you could record that long because I have mine setup for security purposes and it works fine. and I have co-workers that record long class seminars and I haven't heard any complaints from them

Depends on the quality/rate of the video or your recorder's settings. You can fit 297 minutes (5hrs) on a 4.2Gb DVD at a 2mb per second speed. It is mainly up to your DVD writing software and the settings you choose for it. Most DVD's from movie studios are from 4-8Mb per second, 8Mb gives your 74 minutes of time, and 4Mbs 148 minutes. The quality of the video is naturally better at the higher rate, but you can't "add" quality or clarity simply by increasing it's rate, it may have the opposite effect in extreme cases.

Sorry, I never tried that. I used it for copying VHS that I recorded myself to DVDs. But I was VERY disappointed that it would not record from my DVR, refusing to "make more than the limit of 1 copy". The VHS is broken now, will play but not record. So I only use it to play DVD's.

Hi Doowon, there is no capacity limitation for recording movies. If you are pertaining to 2GB limit per file, this is a normal operation and the movie would be divided. The maximum continuous recording time for the unit is 13 hours. Thanks_Mitch

As I remember it does not work like a DVR or VCR. You have to be there. I think the longest that it will record is 90 minutes, maybe 120 minutes. My unit no longer works. There is another company that sells a product that has what you are looking for. I can't remember the name but the cost is around 3-4 times the cost of this unit. Good luck.

Try the Flexible recording method- Should get much more than 4 hours and 18 minutes using this method
