Is it indeed the case this product does not play tapes, only record to them? What hertz does this operate at? Thx.

Dear Sue, The Toshiba I own is in Germany and it needs a current of 110V. I don't know about Hertz, all I know is that I plugged it into a 220 outlet, and it started to smoke. Sorry for being of no help whatever, Viktoria R M

Yes, that is true it only records from tapes. I just plug it into the wall. It has a bottom that looks like it can play on batteries, but I can not figure how to open it. It plays cd's really well and they are great to listen too.

Depends on how old the tapes are. Mine from about 1992 to 2003 work fine. I did purchase a more recent tape that did not. The older ones are no longer manufactured. I did find an outlet through Amazon that claims they have tapes that will work. I'm waiting for the shipment.

If you have a memory card with an audio file on it, like a Possibly Awkward or Jay Z song, you can put it in this guy and have it play over the speakers! They work quite well for such little guys. But this camera/clock is designed to record maximum video footage length, and to do so, they removed the 'record video with audio' option. That's all it means, that it records video without audio. I hope this helped! Have a wonderful day!

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!

I believe that the statement above is incorrect .This device should record HDTV broadcast since it contains an ATSC tuner.However it will not play the broadcast back as HD since the media to which it writes (regular DVD & VHS tape) do not support playback in HD. Ergo you lose some definition in playback.

It does not record and playback, but we easily hooked ours up to an old VCR and do our recording/playback from that.

There is no record option with a tape nor does it have a cd burner. It does have a headphone jack so a computer hookup may work.

I purchased a Toshiba dvd/vcr combination recorder/ player. It is model # DVR670KU. I have never been able to get it to work. I have a Sony LCD Digital Color TV (Bravia). Even the cable guy could not get it to work. I bought it on Ebay (first mistake) and they would not take it back. I have had it 2 years and yet to get it to record or play a dvd. What am I doing wrong.

ok, question that will reveal how little i know about this. you mentioned recording to DVD. Can a DVD recorder record over the air broadcasts? can you set it to record at certain times, the way you would a VCR? And can you re-record over the dvds or do you have to keep buying them? (the advantage of vhs.)thanks!

Having contacted Toshiba and purchased the item, I can answer my own question. It will play back VHS tapes at all three speeds: SP, EP, and LP. Tracking is automatic and there does not appear to be a way to adjust it manually.

I didn't receive an instruction booklet and have not tried recording. I think it will record to tapes.

No, and I had to return (in less than 24hs) the item because it did not work with my tapes. Besides, they charged me additional (+/-) 40% for handling.

Well from what I've read it looks like it's bit rate is 128kbps.. I haven't listened to recorded music yet but I have tried hooking it up to my phone and they didn't communicate however from what I've read is that you plug a thumb drive/sd card or an mp3 player and it will work... I don't have an mp3 player so... I hope that helps

It plays a cassette so that you can convert the content of the cassette to a computer file. So, no it does not record.

No you can not record from CD to cassette tape because this model does not record. Their are Sony radios that do record though. artras@att.net

Yes, it is absolutely possible. I have been using mine to record from albums on my stereo. You end up with one big windows media file for each side of the record (or each side of the cassette) unless there are very long pauses between tracks (in which case it may separate them into distinct files). The recorded tracks are labelled by the date and time of recording, but you can download them to your computer, rename them, and burn them to a CD if you like. I have been happy with this aspect of the player, what I really don't like is that my screen died, I replaced it, the screen died AGAIN on the replacement, I replaced that one, and the screen just died last night on number 3. All this within ten months, and I don't abuse the thing. Replacement is relatively quick, but you have to go through a run around with customer service before they will give you and RMA number, then you have to pay for shipping. My first replacement was free, but the second cost $25, and so will the latest. After the first year, I think you just have to buy a new one. Not good.
