Yes you can but with additional software. I transferred all my 8mm tapes (and VHS tapes) to DVD's using Honestech VHS to DVD 5.0.

If you have the camera there is transfer boxes you can buy for about $30, I'm sure on amazon too. You just plug audio/video cables in and transfer anything to the computer, then burn it on DVD. I have one and it works great. If you don't have the camera there should be something that just plays the tapes, may be hard to find though. Mini DV camcorders are obsolete now, should be able to find one pretty cheap or on eBay to use for transferring tapes.

There's a number of ways, but all of them require additional tools. You would either need a conversion kit for the hi8 tapes or you can use the composite (red, white, and yellow jacks) cable for the camcorder and a VCR, DVD recorder, or PC with the proper adapter to convert to another media.

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.

Yes or DVD to VHS. Very easy to use to do that as long as you have the right DVD. They have to be DVD -R, not +R.

I don't think so. There is a component and S-Video output - So if you can hook this up to your computer you could use it but there is no need. This device eliminates copy protection. So unless the VCR tapes have copy protection you don't need this device. What it sounds like you want is analog video capture ability. Check out USB devices for capturing video signal.

In most cases yes, but I have only used a limited group of old movie tapes that were already adapted to a usb input from my video camera equipment. My suggestion is that equipment like this is hard to say universally that it will work on every system, but it pretty basic in its operation as well as inexpensive, and worth a try if this is the application you are seeking.

I plugged it into an old VCR with rca plugs and it copied a regular resolution dvd onto tape, so I would assume the answer is yes, but remember that you might experience resolution issues if you are going from HD to low def.

I am absolutely positive it will work, F. Melamed. The camcorder probably has RCA composite connections (red and white for audio, yellow for video). If it is mono, one of the audio connections should work for both. If not, go to Radio Shack and get a "Y" connector to connect the mono connection to the stereo connections on the DVD recorder. Once you have them connected, turn both the camcorder and recorder on. Make sure the recorder is tuned to the proper input and then put it into "Record Pause" mode. Then, when you have the tape in the camcorder at the right place, just press "Record" on the DVD recorder. That will give you the cleanest start for your recording. I recommend using the 1 hour DVD mode for the best picture possible.

Prof. Whitebread: Yes, you can hook up a VCR and record VHS tapes to DVD with this recorder. I transferred all my VHS movies (all that were not copy-protected) to DVD using this recorder. You can apparently do some editing too, although I have not tried this. You can read all about it on the downloadable owner's manual in PDF, available at this URL: http://www.tacp.toshiba.com/tacpassets-images/models/dr570/docs/dr570_om_e.pdf

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.

As long as the camcorder is a Hi8 video camcorder, these tapes( 8 mm High Quality=Hi8) should and will work.

Yes, as long as your camcorder has yellow/red/white outputs and your other components have similar inputs. Bear in mind, this is standard def. If you're looking for hi-def, this won't do the job. However, it's a very reliable A/V amp.

That's a tricky question as you are really talking about "Will my video card allow input cables from my camcorder?" The other option is whatever your camcorder records with (tape, disc, what have you) is there a way to transfer that data to the PC/MAC. Will it burn in HD? Yes absolutely. To a DVD? Not truly. You would need to have a blank BLURAY disc to get the real HD quality I think you might be looking for. The real trick is getting it off your camcorder. :) Hope this helps and if wanting some idea's try this string in Google "move video from camcorder to computer" without the quotes of course. :) Best of luck!

Sorry I can't help you. I have only used it to convert VHS tapes and edit them in order to burn to DVD's.

Sorry that I cannot answer your question as I've yet to use it for anything else but transferring old video tapes to digital.
