I am considering purchasing a reasonably priced DVD Recorder/Player but
have a number of questions which I am sure someone can help!
1. Currently I have the Cable connected to a Digital Box which then
feeds into a VCR and thence into the TV, which works fine for my needs.
Can I simply insert a DVD unit in between the VCR and TV in order
to play VCR Tapes or DVDs in addition to using the TV (as at the
moment)?
With this set up can I copy my VCR Tapes onto DVD discs? Can I
also make DVD copies of commercial tapes - I suspect the answer here is
NO?
2. I have been looking at DVD Recorder/Player units and some of them
mention that they will record on DVD-RAM, DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-RW and
play DVD/CD, VCD/CD, CD-R, CD-RW, DVD audio, or variations of this,
some being more restricted or not specified. How important are these
specifications? Are all these varieties required? If not, which ones
are important? And, if restricted, is this a limitation on the type of
blank DVDs purchased?
Sorry for this long-winded message but I hope someone can help on this
matter as it seems that the more varieties of these specs, the higher
the cost - which may not be necessary!
Paul
