any brand...as long as it is DVD-R or DVD-RW you can record on and if you finalize the DVD after you finish using the DVD... you can play it on your computer.

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.

Up to a 16gb SD card. I recommend a Class 6 or 10 as HD recordings require a fast consistent write speed. This one would do perfectly: Toshiba 16Gb Class 10 Secure Digital High Capacity Card (THNSH016GTRT)

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.

I just put files on my hard drive and use nero to make the dvd's they play much better than my dv recorder, and if I want to save and wait to get a blueray recorder I could always burn in hd, but they are a bit expensive the price will come down

If it's seeking a disk, switch to HDD (hard drive disk) rather than DVD and see what happens. If you want to use a re-recordable DVD it must be a DVD+RW, not a DVD-RW.

yes, you can record to a DVD with either the set time program feature or by just clicking 'record'. There are two buttons, one for HDD which records to an internal hard disk and one for DVD which records to a DVD disk. You can also dub a show you recorded in the HDD mode on to a DVD. It's a pretty cool set up and I like it better than my cable company's DVR box because it will record something like 100+ hours on the HDD mode so you are not having to always delete a show for space. You need to set up the DVD function to finalize the show you recorded so it can be played on any DVD player. I set mine up to do this automatically which is very simple. The instruction book is easy to understand. Don't forget to take the plastic protective skin off of the remote, it isn't very apparent and it is hard to read the writing on it if you don't remove it.

If your Dvd has composite input for recording, I guess this works. Just remind laptop screen is good for low resolution such as 320x240 or 640x480 which are used for retro console emulators full screen output by direct 3d. Normal windows screen is too high resolution even if it is 800x600 to see the characters they will be blurred c

I think you mean dvd- or dvd+ discs. Yes it will record on both. With the DVD+ you can erase and record over if you want.

I believe that you can record on either the VCR or the DVD, but having said this please note that I returned this device because it did not work as expected.

I am trying to burn HD video to a dvd. Can anyone tell me what DVD's to use and how to burn the video in HD? I recorded the material in HD...

It's not a DVD recorder- only a player so it won't record new material onto DVD like a VHS. You want a DVD recorder. There are a lot of them listed on Amazon. I don't have one personally so can't recommend one from personal experience. Good luck.

liteon.com use to have free downloads for their dvd recorders not certain if they still do. Occasionally you will see owners manual for sale on Amazon or eBay.

So if I wanted to record a program that's longer than 2 hours (DVD length) I could record directly to the DVD at, say, Long Play mode? Or I could record to HDD at LP mode so I could burn a DVD later? It does make sense to burn at the recorded speed; thanks for the hint! Thanks for the help!

Use DVD-R. Before you can play any DVD you recorded you have to finalize it. Finalizing is usually done after you have recorded a video and you are prompted to finalize. Once a DVD is finalize you cannot make a further changes, like adding a title.

Yes, the unit accepts most common recordable DVD media. You may record directly to DVD or dub from the HDD of previously recorded items.
