DVD is such an improvement over VHS that it doesn't matter.
To copy a copyrighted VHS tape to DVD using a DVD VHS combo recorder, first connect the VHS tape to the combo unit and insert the VHS tape into the VHS slot. Then, insert a blank DVD into the DVD drive. Start playback of the VHS tape and press the "Record" button on the DVD recorder to begin the transfer; make sure to monitor the process to ensure everything is being recorded correctly.
