All I have found so far is to take them to Walmart. They ship them out, so I'm guessing there must be places on line as well. I just started looking myself. Best of luck.

I think it depends on what your DVD has as an input vs. what the output from the computer is. Sorry I'm not more help, but without looking at it, it's tough to gauge. Sometimes even when they connect up, the device to which you input won't record.

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 don't think it will work. DVDs have formated files written to them not raw video like this delivers. Sorry

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.

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.

I don't have the mini, but I've read all over that i will play .ISO files just like if it were in a DVD player.I have the regular WDTV and it will play .ISO files, but will only play the main movie (or the longest file, i.e. when I select The Aristocrats .ISO file, it plays the extra un-edited joke video and not the main movie)

Thanks. Do you know where I can find information about how to save the DVD to the HD?

xavier, I was looking for the same feature set: an upscaling DVD player, converting PAL to NTSC, region-unlocked. I opted for a Pioneer DV-49AV hardware modified by 220-electronics to be region free to take advantage of the high quality conversion engine; I don't think the Pioneers accept a software region unlock code. Another suggestion might be the Philips DVP5982 which appears to have an unlock code but not quite as high a quality upscaling chipset as the Pioneer; I've not tried the 5982, but I've had good experiences with the older non-upscaling DVP5140 reading region 2 PAL DVDs.

I won't be of much help. I inherited the DVD/VCR sans remote because a roommate couldn't pay rent and I wanted to stay seated while I enjoyed his stuff. I just sat on Google until I found what I hoped would work. It was a total fingers-crossed transaction.

If you are asking about VHS transferred to PC and then make a DVD I have had no luck with the programs they advertise to transfer to the PC. I have a Panasonic VHS copier to DVD which is what is left on the market I used to use Go-Video which was a great machine but they are gone. Then to make DVDs I use AVS programs to convert Blessings, Rita

I don't know if you'll ever see this reply but it's worth getting the word out anyway. I recently purchased the new Small Wonder combo kit from TigerDirect.com. RCA has put out this DVD burner/Small Wonder camera combo package that is PERFECT for what you are asking about. The camera docks right onto the DVD burner, which connects to a t.v., and the videos will transfer directly into the DVD burner! It's so cool and easy. Plus, the DVD burner acts a stand-alone DVD player AND it will take inputs from other transmission sources (video camera, t.v. tuner, etc). This is a great product and a great value!

I suggest you contact Amazon right away! Inform them of your problem & they should refund your full purchase. They did for me & told me to just keep the product or throw it out.If you still want to convert your old videos, I'd suggest checking the Honestech VHS to DVD package. I eventually went with it from Amazon. Unfortunately you just missed a Gold Box deal a few days ago, but it's the best & easiest to use that I could find. Even at regular price it;s still a good deal. Good Luck & repost when you succeed. Mike

Thompsom, You must connect with a port into back of the unit. I have a AVH-P5900 DVD.

I am able to see video during VHS transfer to disk. I have the VHS recorder out line going into the Toshiba recorder "in" receptacle, and then an "out line" from the Toshiba to the TV. check that all in and out connections are same, that is that each one is the Red, White, and Yellow RCA plugins for example. Also the Yellow video out and in on the Toshiba recorder is separated from the red an white audio in and outs. And of course check that you are picking the correct "video input" channel on your TV (that matches the number or letter where the Toshiba is plugged into the TV)

Hi Susan, yes, it can burn your mini DV to a DVD disc. You can connect your camcorder via USB or A/V cables. Thanks_Mitch
