How do you copy a VCR tape to a DVD disc?

Asked by Wiki User

The easiest way to copy files from the computer to a DVD is to use a backup program with prompts that will tell the user the different steps. If only a few files need to be copied, open the "Libraries" Tab, then click on the file folder to be downloaded. Insert the dvd, and follow the prompts. Hold the mouse on the file, click and hold the left button, and then slide the files to the name of the drive being used for the dvd.

Can you copy your old video recordings to DVD with a digital recorder?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Commercial DVD's are not burned they are pressed from a master in huge numbers. That is why you cannot duplicate a commercial DVD to a DVD-R for example. You can burn from a DVR to a DVD but you won't be sble to do it digitally if there is copy protection. For example if you record a program from cable and it is copy protected, you are only able to put on digital media (Recorder or DVD) once. The next transfer will be blocked if there is copy protection in the program. About half the programs have this protection now.

Is there a DVR capable of recording multiple channels at the same time?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes. It's known as a dual DVR. Mine's a Dish Network unit and DirecTV has 'em too, but you have to be a subscriber and have ordered the dual receiver/recording unit. Other than that, I'm not sure that there are any others on the market.

My VCR doesn't except tapes how can i fix it?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Depending on your VCR's loading mechanism, it's probably one of two things. Either the timing gears have slipped (to fix that correctly, the gears will most likely need to be replaced) or the mode switch has gotten dirty (tarnish on the silver contacts from lack of use) and it needs to ether be replaced or dismantled and cleaned.

What is a camcorder?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A camcorder is a portable electronic device (generally a digital camera) for recording video images and audio onto a storage device. The camcorder contains both camera and recorder in one unit, hence its portmanteau name. This compares to previous technology where they would be separate.

How do you download from a dvr to a DVD?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You cannot download a file inside the DVR unit onto a DVD disk the same way you can download a music file from the iTune store. But you can record output from the DVR to a DVD disk using either a stand-alone DVD disk recorder or computer's DVD writer. Connect an analog output on the DVR (such as S-video, component, or composite for video and RCA / red and white audio) to the input sockets of your stand-alone DVD recorder. Or buy a USB or PCI 'video capture' device for your computer so that you can connect DVR's analog output to the video capture device on your computer. While a TV show is played on the DVR, the stand-alone DVD recorder or computer will record it.
