Yes, you can record anything to either DVD or VCR.I have been using it to copy VCR tapes to DVD. Works very well

No, it can only be done with an external tuner, after many internet searches by me and two stores that sell this I find no such tuners. I returned mine to the seller for a refund. What you have is a VHS/DVD player only, not a Recorder.

My machine would not record on DVD so I sent it back and purchased a different model from Walmart--which would be an easy return if id did not work.

Yes. I record to the hd and them move to other devices but u believe there's an option to go direct to DVD. Regardless each movie is an individual file which you can delete. Also recommend maybe you burn two DVDs before you delete if you go through the time to record it.

no it only copies what you recorded to dvd if it's hooked up to a dvd recorder

Yes, you can use +RW, -RW dvd's. Itvdoes not have a tuner, so you have to use the rca video from a tv tuner to the input of this recorder.

Whatever you see on your TV screen, you can record. http://www.ehow.com/how_6001623_record-ota-dvd-recorder.html

Any camera can do the recording. The DVD question is only dependent on the computer you use to transfer the video file to disc, as long as you have the software you're good to go.

Not unless you have a separate VCR. This is just a DVD recorder. I recorded all my old VCR tapes with it, from a VCR, and it works great.

Yes, you can record shows off the air. As long as you have the yellow, red, and white Tv inputs on your Television. I use them and did not use HDMI.

yes! use audio video cables(red,white,and yellow). connect the cables to your cam and plug them into the audio video connections(in)on a dvd recorder (toshiba or magnavox)!

YES!! I've done it with my Hi-8 video tapes. It was very simple, attaching the output from the video camera to the input on the DVD recorder. First time I tried, I forgot to select the setting for the source, and ended up with a little TV recording, but once I corrected my problem, it went very smoothly.

Yes, you can record movies on them and music to cd and dvd, the drive comes with the cord, so you don't need another cord.

yes. my connection is from a directv setup and I use it to record football games and tv shows. couldn't be easier. I use the component video with a separate digital audio cable from the directv reciever to get high def sound with the video. you can use editing software to remove commercials easily and either burn to dvd or as jr says below replay the files anytime to your tv using a media player -- add a cheap external drive to store and you never have to keep up with DVD again.

Yes, you can record to either a DVD disc or to the built in hard drive. I have been recording to the hard drive exclusively since I don't want permanent copies. I just erase the shows after I watch them. I recommend using the HQ option when recording for best quality. If you do decide to make a permanent copy you can dub to a DVD from the hard drive. You can go to the Magnavox web site and download the free users manual. That will answer all your questions.

I have used it to record TV, but after 2 of the same unit, 3 years old and it will stop recording. no matter what DVD's you use.

Yes... you can record movies and or music to athe on board CD unit. Of course this requires the proper software such as NERO PRO to do so. The computer does NOT come the necessary software to simply recording. The Windows based software will allow recording of music however.

No! DVD or Blue ray players don't record! PC do! But all functions of all connected media can be controlled with some hunting through the commands. Or specific buttons can be programmed.

I don't think so, this device suppose to enable connecting new HDMI devices into old composite connection and translate sound and image accordingly. To write record or burn DVDs using a PC would require a software like Nero Toast etc. These softwares prepare media prior to fit a dvd before it does it. I assume you could record onto your PC by this would require a recording or a grabbing software. Unless someone has more enlightened answer that's the best of my knowledge.
