It may be that the tape you are trying to record from is copy-protected. You will then get a "scrambled" picture

Recording my VCR to my computer with a USB 2.0

the easiest way to do this is go buy a DAZZLE recording device and you can buy this anywhere like radio shack best buy. this will record what ever device you hook up to it and it wont take up a bunch of hard drive space. Very easy to use my wife even does it.

I record a DVD from VCR tape and try to play on another device

In my research, I learned about finalizing the DVD, which was a new concept to me. I looked that process up in the manual and it did the trick.

Can you record a dvd from vhs on this system ?

No you cannot - This is a DVD *PLAYER* / VCR combo - which means it features a DVD player & VHS recorder in one - you cannot record onto DVD - You can however watch a DVD while recording your tv program on the VCR.

I hope this answers your question.

If you want to convert your VHS to DVD you will need to purchase a standalone DVD recorder - I personally do not reocmmend the DVD recorder / VCR combos - or you can use a HDD/DVD recorder which stores recordings on a hard drive and later you can burn them on DVD, they allow editing, more flexible recording options, etc

Funai dvd rcorder will not record to dvd

Are you trying to record a VHS tape to DVD? This won't work if the VHS tape is a commercial (disney, dreamwords, etc) because of an analog copy protection scheme known as Macrovision.

If you are trying to record, say, a broadcast signal and it will record to VHS and HDD, but the DVD errors out, then either the DVD drive is bad, or you have the incorrect type of recordable DVD in the player...

How to copy recorded files from hard disk of TV (LG 47LY3DE) to Combo DMR-EZ47V

From what I've read, you can't. There is no way to copy from the HDD to a DVD, and the HDD in the TV can't be read by windows. Same if you add an external HDD. Thats the only downside I can see to this TV
