I can move the contents of the VHS and burn on dvd?

If you are asking if you can burn the VHS contents to the dvd drive, no. The DVD drive on this unit is just a player. Check out Panasonic VHS/DVD recorders. I have one that records VHS to DVD -- it works beautifully, but is very old and no longer available. You may be able to find one from a third-party seller.

I copied all of my VHS tapes to DVD with no problem. I purchased the original VHS cassettes, so legally I would think there is no issue with making a copy for private use.

I'm sorry I don't know that. I have to play my VHS and DVD. I sorry I can't. I will look at to see and get back to you. Thank you

No, I've found the best way to do that is to buy a VHS to DVD recorder. Once you transfer the VHS to DVD, you can rip it to your computer then edit it in this program.

Yes. Recording to VHS requires a converter box if your signal source is an over-the-air antenna (the DVD side of this unit is play-only).

Remember this unit records to HDD and DVD. So you can record it to the HDD, but sometime you might have to copy it to a DVD if wanted to save space on the HDD. You can use the HDD as a VHS. The only way to transport the HDD content is to copy on a DVD otherwise you will have to disconnect your unit every time you wanted to see the HDD at a friend's place which is very impractical to do. Also when you record on the HDD, try to edit the title's name so you would remember what it is.

I assume you want to record from the VHS side to the DVD side of your combo, then no you cannot use it. If, however, you are using a different machine to play a video and are using the combo only to record on, then yes, you can use it.

Yes, you can record to VHS or DVD. This is not a DVR so there is no internal hard drive to record to. There is only composite and s-video inputs on the machine which have a maximum video resolution of 480i; make sure your video output source corresponds for the best picture.

Absolutely. You can play either vhs tapes or dvd's. You can also copy vhs to dvd and dvd to vhs. Most important, you can copy MOST of your commercial vhs tapes to dvd. Bear in mind, these tapes are breaking down. You want to copy them as soon as you can. I was able to copy all of mine except for Miramax and Disney. There were a few other brands here and there, but most of mine copied.

If you don't already own the equipment necessary to create a dvd, I woild suggest you find a company in your local area that can provide the service for you. If you are not into VHS to DVD conversion and own the equipment, it would not be practical to purchase it to do one or two tapes. As the tapes are yours, they will not have any copy protection scheme on them and you will not require the GREX unit for this.

I have not found a way to do that. I have been able to copy some VHS titles but most, including Disney, I have not been able to. Unless there is a feature I haven't found yet, I would look for a different unit.

If you are trying to copy a retail VHS movie that has macro-vision copy protection to a DVD on a stand alone DVD recorder, then, yes this will allow you to make the copy. The condition of the VHS tape you want to copy needs to be good otherwise you may have problems getting started. The DVD recorder only looks for the copy protection when you first start the recording. If everything is OK then it will continue to record until you stop it. (most of the time) Good Luck

You would be better off getting a device specifically for this purpose, or you can send your tapes to a service that will convert them for you.All the big chains have devices to convert VHS to digital for anywhere from $30 to $100 ..

I am currently using the Colossus card to convert standard VHS tapes to dvd and it works great! You will have to transcode the output of the card to MPEG2/AC3 format to put it on DVD as the card only records to MPEG4-AVC format. Also, use S-video or component video input if possible.

I don't believe you can. I had 2 of these VCR"s and they never worked properly. They always ate the tapes and sounded watery. I ended up buying a Toshiba and haven't had a problem in years, but it does not record video to DVD. That feature would be in a model costing a few hundred dollars.
