Which DVD Recorder and VCR combo should I buy?

Saturday, January 2nd, 2010

I have decided to replace my seperate DVD player, and seperate VCR with a combo unit.

I dont use my VCR much, but it would be nice to be able to copy my tapes over to DVD, even the tapes that are originals, and not just the ones that I recorded off of HBO.
I think I want a DVD recorder that is capable of using + and - RW discs, and if it can use dual layer (DL), that would be a bonus but not neccesary.

I have a tivo DVR built into my satellite receiver and so I would like to dump some of my saved stuff from the tivo unit down to the DVD recoder.

I have done some research on CNET.com and on BestBuy.com. Nothing really jumps out as a clear winner.

I am prepared to spend between 200 and 250.
I have coax audio input available since the CD player I am taking out of service is using that.

Thank you in advance.

I have no dvd capabilities. What exactly do I need to buy in order to burn DVD’s?

Friday, January 1st, 2010

I have a 2-3 year old Dell with XP and duel CD drives only. I’d like to be able to burn DVDs. Do I need two new drives? Both DVD-Rs? What’s the difference between a DVD-R and a DVD-RW? What else do I need after the new drives?

Friday, January 1st, 2010

After season 1 in 2001 there were never anymore seasons released on dvd for “soul food” the series on showtime. I’m wondering what the big oversight from paramount, viacom, bet or whomever is about.

How do you fix a PS2 dvd reader?

Friday, January 1st, 2010

I’ve opened up the machine. Cleaned it properly (using a duster spray, no actual touching), tweaked the tray height using the manual control to see if moving the DVD closer or farther from the reader would work. Nothing’s worked so far. It’s more than 5 years old. Is it dead? Or is there something else I should try?

How do I fix this problem with my computers dvd player?

Thursday, December 31st, 2009

This problem happened out of nowhere. I used to be able to play movies and cd’s without a problem and now I’ve been experiencing “skipping” with every disc i put in. It will play the movie or cd, but it keeps skipping. I just bought a new movie, So it can’t be that my discs are scratched. It will not play right. I’ve used Windows media player, Power dvd, and Winamp. With every player i have the same problem. Wont you help me?

Do I need to encode the dvd+r disk, how? Is there a program that I can just pull the movie from the file and click burn and it will put the movie on the dvd?
