  • Looking for VCR/DVD combo recorder.

    I'm looking for a VCR/DVD combo recorder that burn o DVDs. I would need need it to be able to burn to something other than UDF DVDs as these do not work in most players. Any ideas?

    Why a combo? Why not 2 seperate devices: a VCR and a DVD-recorder with an analog input?

      LG has a great DVD-VCR combo unit in the LRY-517. It can burn to all DVD formats including dual layer DVD's (8.5g) and DVD-RAM w/time slip (play and record the same disc simultaneously). They run about $399 at Best Buy;



      Most of these decks will burn compatable discs if you remember to CLOSE (or FINISH in some models) the disc. Not necessary if you use DVD +/- RW.

      Damned thing even has multimedia card slots for doing slideshows, set/delete chapter marks etc. etc.

        The combos can record to DVD automatically from the VHS tapes from what I understand.

        Correction:
        Some of them can.

          It looks excellent but does it burn ISO file system DVDs or UDF? Or better yet, does it do both?
