How does it have a built in VCR?and does it slice bananas?

The description CLEARLY STATES this can only slice vegetables. Bananas are NOT a vegetable.

At least this guy asked a stupid question on purpose. Some of these other questions... wow.

what about tomatoes? They're treated like a vegetable, but technically it's a fruit

It doesn't have a VCR built in, but it can definitely slice bananas. The only issue is you lose about an inch of banana at the slice because the edge is a bit dull compared to other banana slicing implements.

If you have a analog TV, your digital TV converter can act as a tuner. I have a smart antenna and I connect the smart antenna to the converter. Then, I connect the digital converter to the VCR/DVD Recorder with RCA cables.

Hi there K.........how did this unit turn out for you? I've had mine for a couple of years so far, and it plays DVD's great. I gave up on learning how to copy a tape to a disk, but that is the one feature I needed to rid myself of boxes of old VCR tapes. (See my posts dated 2/21/10.) James says I need a tuner, however the inst. book does not mention that. Thanks for the help, Jeanette

Not sure exactly what you mean, but it's digital, so it's nothing like the time-wasting process of fast-forward or reverse on a tape recorder. You can jump to a specific "cut", similar to the way you would on a MP3 player.

You just Hook the Video and Adio cables coming from the Astak reciever to the RCA INPUT on the back (or Front sometimes) of your VCR turn camera and reciever on (make sure same channel) and use you VCR to record

hi Lawrence,I used mine for a vcr.I wondered if it would work or not and came to the conclusion,if it doesn't, I have a paper weight.

Its a sad piece of garbage, basic StandarDefention recording [even thru its Component Inputs], plays very few types of files [unless you pay thry\u the nose and then it still wont pay many of todays files] and basic watch while you record DVR capabilities don't exist... this is no better than a VCR

You can record with either the vcr or the dvd mode and you can record your vcr tapes onto dvd discs.. For months, I was using it for only vcr recording, and then decided to catch up with the times and bought some dvd-rw dics. I love the dvd recording now that I'm using it. The only down side, that I see is that you have to re-format the dvd discs before recording again and it takes a while to initialize when you insert the disc in the machine.

No it doesn't. That's why its so cheap. I used my old VCR as a tuner to record tv shows to DVDs, I don't have a DVR so I can't say. If you have a cable box it should work, a cable box/satellite box is a tuner.

Hi Sandy. I bought this as a refurbished machine to attempt to convert my dad's old video camera recordings to DVD. I plugged the camcorder cable into the front input of the DVD recorder, and it worked perfectly. I made a set of DVDs for my mom and brother for Christmas that year. The only inputs on this DVD recorder are the S-video or the component (red, yellow, green), so as long as your VCR will plug into either of those, it should work as well as mine did. Good luck!

Control it? This little beauty will OWN your slv-n750. This handy dandy little remote picks up slv-n750's, spreads a thick slathering of mayo and mustard on them, eats them for lunch and then craps out a flawless shiny slv-n750 whole. Seriously, this remote will change you and the life of your circa 1992 VCR. Oh wait... why are you still using a VCR??

It does record onto VHS. That is about the only thing that I have been able to figure out. This is the MOST ridiculously confusing piece of crap to operate I have ever seen. I swear to god, if you buy this you will be as frustrated as I am with it. I may just throw it out and get something easy to understand. (Who the hell thought it a good idea to take the "eject" button OFF of the remote! Do NOT buy this thing!

Yes it does. It does it well, and efficiently, and if you are as I was, buried in VHS tapes, it is a MUST HAVE.

Yes it does have a record function. Just program your show ie: time channel etc. the cable will have to be run through the VCR/DVD.

It uses minidv tapes. The picture shows a hard drive attachment that will record direct to disk. But it is pretty expensive. It can shoot HDV, DVCAM, and DV to miniDV tape.

The Emerson EWD2004 DVD+VCR can be programmed to do a timed recording.The manual can be downloaded from the Internet.The unit I purchased came with a generic remote control, and I had to buy an appropriate remote off the Internet.
