can I covert VHS to DVD?

You have to use a dual DVD VHS Player /Recorder. I use a Sylvania DVR90VF, about 6 years old. Expect to pay $200.00 to $300.00 for a good one. I have made several conversions in the past. Eliminate the tapes-saves space and better quality.

Sadly, this unit just plays DVD's. You'll need a combination VHS tape & DVD recorder to do what you asked about.

this won't work on the computer. you need to attach it from your vhs to a dvd recorder. I hope this helps ;)

You will need a RCA-USB adapter and a video capture software such as http://www.amazon.com/Easy-VHS-DVD-3-Plus/dp/B006GOFW3E/ref=sr_sp-atf_title_1_1?s=software&ie=UTF8&qid=1405401992&sr=1-1&keywords=roxio+easy+vhs+to+dvd

No, I couldn't find any option relating to DVD resolution. When dubbing from VHS to DVD, I usually find the quality of the DVD picture to be at least equal to the quality of the VHS picture.

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 ..

you would have to use the "Dubbing" function to record to a VHS tape. you would have to start the "dubbing" to transfer a program and then stop recording during the commercial and then start recording the program until the next commercial. if you want a DVD of the program you would reverse the "Dubbing" function to transfer a VHS tape to a DVD. the process is time consuming since you will be starting and stopping the "Dubbing" but i have done it.

Old VHS? This unit is what you need to bypass the copy protect on the VHS tape. It won't be the best quality picture, but it allows you totransfer to a DVD

No. Buy a DVD/VHS combo recorder. It will only play VHS but will record DVD and transfer to DVD, not expensive. What you are looking at converts movie film and I don't know how It works. I sent mine back because it requires you to have a movie projector or a digital movie camera.

I had some VHS tapes made from old super 8 movies. I copied one of the VHS tapes to a DVD with no trouble.

I was wondering the same thing. we have never transferred them to vhs and no longer have a vcr. any suggestions for the easiest way to transfer would help.

No,sorry it does not work that way ,when you make a dvd from your vhs ,you can make more than one copy .It will ask you if you wish to burn more copies ,you can do as many as you want before closing out .

I'm sorry Sam, I think i misread your initial question. The cable i was referring to was for output not in. my bad. I don't think you can do what your wanting with this camcorder. However there are other options besides a third party to convert your old VHS tapes. Simply search for a vhs to dvd converter. There are many options to choose from. Again sorry for misreading your question.

Yes, the S-Video output from VCR machine can be connected to the Video in side of the DVD recorder. Sound cables are connected as normal. The sound quality from older VHS tapes may be noisy. If you have a PC with a DVD drive, and software to edit video, the simpler solution is to record the VHS tape on to the hard drive, use the sound filter, and then burn the DVD.

Yes you can. Format, depends on what you use and save after you edit. I use Roxio and save as WMV. I also burn to DVD and play on a 50" plasma. Video is better than our old VHS-C and close to MiniDV.

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.

It all depends on which VHS-DVD recoder you have. here is a list fom their website, of those VHS-DVD recorders they know will work! Take a look, and if you find your model recorder, and click on it, there will be a drawing showing you how to hook up http://www.xdimax.com/grex/grex.html#CMP
