Sierra   22 #4 Posted February 10, 2012 I hope the VHS tapes aren't too old. When we had a few of ours copied to DVD, some of the images couldn't be retrieved because of age. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

nubile   10 #6 Posted February 10, 2012 I hope the VHS tapes aren't too old. When we had a few of ours copied to DVD, some of the images couldn't be retrieved because of age.  I've also known the tape to snap on very old ones. I've done a few for other people but it's always with a warning that this could happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

It's not difficult, just time consuming. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Harleyman   12 #11 Posted February 10, 2012 All you need is a DVD recorder/player that has a VHS recorder/player also. All you do is insert the VHS cassette and a blank DVD disc, format the DVD disc then press record.  I've copied many VHS cassettes onto DVD but the picture quality on the DVD will only be as good as that on the VHS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
