yes it does, in your owner's manual, this process is discribed in very simple terms. put a dvd in press record, or, set timer to record later.

Yes, as long as you have a tuner or cable box. You must have a tuner or cable box with Audio/Video outputs (the white/yellow/red outputs). I use my cable box to record to the unit (VHS or DVD) every day.

No. I'm sure there is a way of doing it but not without accessing the hard drive directly. However, since the unit has the capability of transferring to a DVD directly from the hard drive why would you consider going that route?

No. There is no DVD recorder built in. You would need to copy the video file to a flash drive.

Yes. It can record to DVD-R, +R, -RW or +RW (even though the manual doesn't mention +R or +RW). You can format DVDs prior to use in either Video mode for playing normally in other players or in VR mode for special editing/playing purposes.

Hello.I do not know.I use these dvds for recording directly from television. These dvds are also excellent for direct dvd to dvd transfers and transferring data from old vhs tapes to dvd.

Hi Amy,Sorry, it does not burn DVDs. You can transfer/store data on it, and record and play-back only.

No it doesn't. But you can hook it up to a TV that has the ports & hook up a VCR or DVD player with record features & do it that way if you like. You can get picture & sound recordings. Hope this helps.

Yes. Recording to VHS requires a converter box if your signal source is an over-the-air antenna (the DVD side of this unit is play-only).

It should, although I haven't tried it. Most people want to go the other way around... Record on the hard drive (temporary) and archive onto DVD (temporary to semi-permanent to permanent, depending on the type of DVD disk.) May I ask why you would want to put something from a playable archived format onto a temporary unit?

I think you mean dvd- or dvd+ discs. Yes it will record on both. With the DVD+ you can erase and record over if you want.

Short answer, yes. Just connect the recorder to the box by a cable. Most boxes have several outputs. You can connect the recorder to the box, then to the TV (i.e., have the recorder in series with the TV), or put the recorder and the TV onto separate box outputs (parallel connection). If you have a DVR, you can record from the DVR onto a DVD also.

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.
