Best Answer

With a VHS recorder hooked to the TV. If you are looking to just record off the TV then the best way is to attach either your antenna or your cable to the VCR in connectio and then the VCR out goes to your TV. If you are looking to attach a camera to your VCR and record, the video out of the camera goes to the videl line in on you VCR and the audio out from your camera goes to line audio in on your VCR. Your VCR will need to be on the LINE IN channel to see the output of the camera. You then push record on your VCR and shoot away.

Simple. Have the cable connection go into the vcr first to the in connection and from there use the out connection to connect to the tv in connection. Now you have all the same channels on the vcr as you do on the tv. If you have a cable box keep the vcr and tv set to the proper channel 3 or 4. If you are working with an antenna it is the same. If you want to watch and record different programs at the same time you will need to split the antenna or cable connection so that each unit gets its own clean signal and tune each devise to the desired channel.

How do you hook up a surveillance camera to a VCR so that it can record while monitoring?

your camera should have some kind of output...just plug it into the VCR, get the vcr onto the right input to see the camera, set the VCR to SLP with a tape with a good amount of time you can record and set the vcr to automatically rewind when it reaches the end while recording. put one of the vcrs outputs to a tv and make sure the vcr is getting the input from the camera right. from there set the vcr on record. all done!


How do you hook up a security camera to a computer so it will record instead of a vcr?

Follow the instructions that came with the camera. You will need special software, and you may not be able to use the same camera, as it produces an analog signal for the VCR and you need a digital signal. Be aware that digital recordings take up a LOT of disc space. Generally you will get better results overall if you use the VCR. Surveillance cameras are one area where old technology is better than new.

Yes, you can as long as you have the coax cable connected to the VCR first and then to your TV. Some TVs have RCA A/V outputs also and you can connect a VCR to them. Even better is to use the RCA A/V connections from the cable box to VCR, VCR to TV.

How do you transfer a record show from DVR to VHS?

First off: why would you bother? The video will be inferior, and tapes are getting harder to find because the VCR is a dying technology. If your answer is "My granny has a VCR", consider buying her a DVD player - you can buy one new for $30 or less at WalMart, and get one used at a yard sale for about $10 or so.With that said, hook up the audio and video out jacks on the DVR (coded red, green and yellow) to the similar a/v in jacks on the VCR, set the VCR to record from these jacks (as opposed to recording from the tuner), press "record" on the VCR, and press "play" on the DVR.
