2015401
My Roxio version is easy VHS TO DVD 3PLUS, I have Windows 64, this program is very erratic, now it works next there's no video feed, just a green screen, duration time is unreliable, as I program a set time, it will tape a few minutes or an hour then stops. These are the problems that I have, I do not know about using Captue from Sound card.

I have burned with Windows DVD maker all types of home videos on Visa and Windows 7. I have combined my own music, Jpegs, and AVI video clips from my Canon Powershot camera. Yah, old school,but when my recent little used DVD died I was told it would be difficult to find one that would read my home videos. Well the Big box store said this one wouldn't do it, but it does and I'm going to buy another tomorrow. I tried it on an 1988 Panasonic and a Sony HD 40 Brava with excellent results. It even played VCR movies I copied in a VCR/DVD combo and played them too. I am really pleased with this purchase and bringing the Sansung back tomorrow.

Also having problems: from the USB (as the dvd drive no longer recognizes discs, "Insert Disc" always pops up) tried .avi, .mp4, .wmv, .mov and none are recognized. will try other conversions.

If your VHS tapes are getting old you may have problems like that. Also Head placement with "tracking" sometimes causes loss of audio and/or video.I would say the Video adapter either works or it doesn't work. The rest is either VHS Equipment of conversion software drivers. Those are my thoughts.

Only thing I can think of is the recorder. Try using a different recorder. Did the recorder close and finalized the dvd. Some people leave it open to add to dvd later. These are not the disk for that. Check your recorder settings and make sure it closes and finalize dvd.

I am currently using the Colossus card to convert standard VHS tapes to dvd and it works great! You will have to transcode the output of the card to MPEG2/AC3 format to put it on DVD as the card only records to MPEG4-AVC format. Also, use S-video or component video input if possible.

I have had the same exact problem. Worked great for awhile; now just shows it is recording and doesn't register any sound. Would love to hear if anyone has a solution?

I cannot get my Toshiba to even copy from VHS to DVD. How did you get yours to work?

My unit has a problem with the dvd drawer opening when you are in vhs mode. Does anyone have any suggestions on this problem?Admiral Joe

I have done several recording from vhs to dvd without any problems so maybe if you could provide me a few more details I could steer you in the right direction. The instruction manual is quite complicated and it is easy to miss a important step so tell me what you did any I'll try and sort out the problem. If you have the instruction manual list the steps found in it so I can be sure you are doing the right things.

I have been converting VHS tapes with copy protection to DVD. I installed the XDIMAXunit in the video output from the VHS player between the player and the DVD recorder (You need two cables for this). The left and right audio cables went directly to the DVD recorder.

Windows 7 should not ask for drivers for DVD/CDROM drives. If it does it usually is because of the system not seeing any CD's commonly due to conflicts with iTunes and Burning software (Roxio, etc.)I've recently replaced a bad drive with this model on a Win7 laptop and it automatically recognized it. Hope this helps. Jim

I used it on Windows 7 Home Premium, and also on Windows 7 Professional and it worked flawlessly. I played a dv tape and recorded the avi file straight to the computer.

Donald, Have you had any success fixing this problem? I am having the same problem, I try transferring DVD files to the MP3 and it seems to work, but when I go to play the video on the mp3 it gives me an error. I think it needs to be converted but don't know how. Thanks.
