I need more information to be able to answer your question eg. how are you trying to record shows?Do you have cable TV?

It really depends on what other equipment you have, like DVR or cable box. It's not really a function of the TV itself.

The VCR works on a modern TV. I don't have cable, so I'm not sure about its recording capabilities.

I connected the device directly from the TV and cable box to the computer. I had to unplug everything and then re-plug everything afterwards. You play it live and it records in real time.

You'll need a device that has RCA inputs to record the video. A VCR or a computer with a TV card that has a VIDEO IN connector.

You have to have a cable card in the device for it to work. Your situation may neccessetate some sort of capture card. This one is truly a cable recording device like a settop box DVR

I don't know since I haven't read all the instructions for recording programs. On a former product, there were two tuners so I could watch a program while recording another channel, or record both channels, but not watch or record a third .

I'm not sure how that works to be honest. I do know that you need to buy a tuner to record shows from your tv. I'd assume you need the same thing to record from your DVR.

Unless your main dvr has some sort of DLNA functionality, I'm going to lean towards no. You most likely are not going to able to watch recorded shows.

The recorder does have video and audio imput jacks. I have never tried to record from the TV but I see no reason it wouldn't work especially if you use a cable or satellite box.

Yes, you will be able to set up recording of programs off the air ahead of time but the feature does not work the way you would expect. In my tuner, the calendar is a few days behind the actual date and I always need to correct programming for that offset. The other inconvenience is that the tuner does not automatically takes the channel number and the time from the program guide. I need to set up recording manually. To make HD TV recording it is important to use a fast USB 3.0 hard or flash drive. I am using PNY flash drive with 130MB/s writing speed and it provides high quality HD recording.

The Funai does not have a DVD burner so you cannot copy tapes to DVD's. You can record TV programs but you must use the TV's turner to select the program you want to record and you must connect RCA cables between the TV and the Funai. If your TV does not have audio and video outputs with RCA connectors additional equipment will be necessary.

I have Directv but I have my recorder wires in the out plugs of my cable box. To record I change my tv to the AV selection on my tv and it will show the same programming from your tv. Make sure recorder is on. Your manual shows the plugins.

You can record on either dvd or vcr from the tv. You can also copy your vhs tapes to dvd. In my experience this machine often malfunctions and I would strongly advise against buying it. Good luck.

Yes. Just connect it to the same indoor or outdoor HDTV antenna that the TV is connected to. If its tuner can pick up the signal, it will record it.

Well yeah, you can record whatever you want actually, just plug the TV signal to the capturer and voilá!

The unit should record the show from the original broadcast and it should play back exactly how it was recorded.I don't believe this unit has any extra "features." Leave those up to your TV.
