New member Username: MauimanoPost Number: 1 Registered: Jul-07 | Hello. Looking for some feedback. I am just about to get a Panasonic DMR-E85H DVD recorder/HDD. I also have older, high quality stand-alone Sony VCR and DVD players. I do have a Time Warner dual tuner DVR box, as well. I want to transfer all my VHS on to DVD. I also want to copy DVDs, preferably with all special features and menus intact. I want to do this with the above-listed equipment rather than on my computer. I know the VHS transfer is possible with a stabilizer to remove the copyright codes. From what I've read online, I believe DVD copying is also possible, though I do not know if I can pull all the features on to the burned DVD. 1. Can anyone tell me if I can do these types of transfers with pre-recorded DVDs? 2. Can anyone recommend the best stabilizer product/s that can handle all these functions? (I have been researching but would like experienced opinions.) 3. Does anyone have helpful hints/tips on the E85H? It wasn't my first choice, but overall it is highly rated and in my price range. Thanks much! |

Most consumer available stabilizers remove copy protection but work in the analog domain. Try Sima products. This question has been asked and answered a million time on this forum. Check archives. |

It also has enhancement modes for the video to make it look better. I have only tried it on one tape so far but I don't expect problems on any others. If I have any I will post it. |
