Why will the converter record some tapes (recored voices) but not others?

Perhaps the cassette has been disabled from recording. This prevent re-recording over material that is to be saved.

It recorded all my cassettes. I have done approx. 50 tapes so far of different brands and tape lengths

For an intermittent problem like that, it might be an issue with the way you are recording. If the volume is all the way down, the recording will be as well. It says in the (admittedly ESL but not too bad) instructions that if "playback volume is 0 then recording volume will be 0" or something like that. Check your volume knob and try to record one that did not work before. Also, did you do it on Automatic or manual? If Auto, maybe there is an issue with the player catching the pauses correctly.

I record using the mic jack using a stereo plug coming from a reel-to-reel tape deck. I get a usable file but I suspect my original recordings are monaural.

I had one of these sony recorders. I could not get the thing to work right. It made 1 or 2 Dvds, & that was it. I sent it back, got my money back, & never used one again. I do not think it will covert the codec( the NTSC) format, but I'm not sure. Do you have a computer? If you do, There's a huge variety of dvd direct to pc coverter systems to chose from. I'd try that.

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.

I tried that with my recorder, and it really is not set up to be used that way.

My friend has been using this converter and here is the reponse he sent to the question......I guarantee he did not go to his sound settings depending if he has windows XP, Win 7 or 8. It looks like this below. Sometimes you have to manually set it since your computer may not be ready to draw sound from the device to the speakers.

No not really, i had the same problem with this, there might be a solution somewhere, but I haven't found any. I just use an external audio recorder with Xlr inputs, I don't use these adapters anymore

I think someone is giving an idea that I've found little merrit. Cassette2USB is a good product, especially the converter, records both directions without manually turning tape, software OK on my W7. I Think Digitope Digitalizer is over rated for any OS. Try Cassette2USB for $59.99 at cassette2USB.com . I like it and the converter is worth that alone even with another product such as Magix Cleaning Labs. Several options, I like Cassette2USB the best, but the others have their place as well.

I've never encountered your situation, but it seems to me that any signals that enter the recorder should record ... if you have a cable that goes from HDMI to RCA. Good luck!

The answer to your question is: "NO". That is only one of the reasons I returned the recorder.

This unit only duplicates one CD or DVD onto several other CD's or DVD's. You cannot convert audio cassettes using this unit.

By default it records in MTS. You probably can convert mts to any other format using a video converter.

The problem is that I'd like to use it when recording video, not just for voice notes. It's been very frustrating - sometimes it records in stereo, but most of the time in mono. I haven't been able to figure out what makes the difference.

I'm not sure about that. I couldn't find a setting for that, just make sure the "Loop Recording" is not set to "Off". Other than that I don't know what the issue might be, sorry.

I have been able to convert my mini dv tapes with this camrecorder device. It is just for Sony though--only a Sony machine will work. Very simple to use.

sound recorder in ubuntu linux makes "lossless" recording of whatever is played on the audio "mix" of the computer. Too bad Sony is supporting the Window$ monopoly.

I would say your tapes are bad or your player has a problem. It's only an adapter.
