Dub VCR to DVD recorder
|
New member Username: MariexdOntario Canada Post Number: 1 Registered: Jan-08 | I have a problem, maybe somebody could advice me what to do. I would like to dub the VCR to the DVD recorder. I have many VHS tapes (shows/ movies recorded from the tv), and I would like to transfer them to the DVD. I looked online and followed the directions how to connect the devices. The VCR and DVD recorder could play and record. The problem is it won't dub. Here's what I did: -antana/cable(tv)--out from tv (vcr)...coax cable -video[red]/ r-audio[white]/ L-mono[yellow] input(tv)-- R[white]/ L[yellow]/ Video[red] output(dvd) -from wall connect coax cable to cable box (RF IN) -[coax cable] To Tv/VCR (cable box)--In from Ant (vcr) -R[red]/ L[white]/ Video[yellow](cable box)--R[red]/ L[white]/ Video[yellow] input3 (DVD) -audio[black]/ Video[red] out from tv...rca cable(vcr)--R[black]/ Video[red] input1 (dvd) *the colours [black][red] and [red][white][yellow] indicate the rca colour, of which colours I used *I don't know if it makes a difference which company the devices I have, so I'll metnion them anyway. I have a Zenith television, cable box is through Cogeco cable, VCR is Panasonic, and Toshiba DVD recorder. I even pushed the button on DVD remote labeled "input select" from IN1/IN2/IN3, and none have worked. Did I connect something improperly? Your advice would be most helpful. I'm not tech savy, so please explain the easiest way (step by step)for me to understand. Thanks |

To record from VCR to DVD recorder, you need yellow/red/black OUT from VCR to yellow/red/black IN on DVD recorder. If you don't have this connection, you cannot record from VCR to DVD recorder. |
