DVD/VHS recording The DVD will not record from the VHS tape. It is a homemade VHS tape - not purchased.

The simplest method to record VHS to DVD is to purchase a recorder which has both VHS and DVD. They are relatively inexpensive now. You simply connect the device to your television via coaxial or audio/video cables. Insert the VHS tape in one side and the blank DVD media on the other. Press record and soon you will be watching your old VHS tapes on your DVD player.

Is it possible the VHS you're trying to copy is copy-protected? Apparently, the MC6 displays "waiting for signal" when you're attempting to copy a copy-protected (commercial) video. I had success converting my own homemade VHS tapes. I just bought my MC6, and thought I'd pass along some tips I got from others: You know you're recording when a red ring around the large Record button lights up and it actually says "recording" on screen, and adjust HQ to SP to get 2-plus hours of video on the DVD.

some commercial tapes have a copyright code on them called 'macrovision'. the dvd player may sense this and disable recording. Try a homemade tape and see if you can record from those first.

Depending on the procedure you may be pressing the record button instead of the D.Dubbing or Dubbing button. When recording from VHS to DVD you must first, load the blank DVD and VHS home movies, then play the VHS movies, then PAUSE the VHS movie when you want to START recording... then the only the you have to do is pressing the D.Dubbing button or the Dubbing button. If your VHS tapes starts to play after the Dubbing button is pressed you have been successful in Dubbing.

It is only a DVD player, you can't record with it. You can only record on VHS tape.

Read your manual first to make sure the unit will do this.If it does chances are it won't record unless it has a decoder built in.Most VHS tapes have macrovision protection that prevents you from copying them.It will however,record homemade VHS tapes.There are decoders out there you can buy to enable you to copy VHS tapes.

How old is the VHS tape? I've had success recording older movies, but the newer ones have encryption to prevent duplication of them. I've even tried playing them on another VCR and transmitting the signal with a wireless audio/video transmitter but unfortunately the encryption is still there. If you can copy the tape to another tape, then it may not have encryption. If that's the case, check you A/V inputs to see if you have them setup right.

thisCD recorder wont DUB COPY PROTECTED MATERIALS (COPY RIGHTED) AS IT WILL RECORD HOMEMADE VIDEO FROM A VIDEO CAMERA BUT NOT FROM A STORE BOUGHT TAPE AS THEy ARE COPY PROTECTED.
