I don't think so. There is a component and S-Video output - So if you can hook this up to your computer you could use it but there is no need. This device eliminates copy protection. So unless the VCR tapes have copy protection you don't need this device. What it sounds like you want is analog video capture ability. Check out USB devices for capturing video signal.

The GREX only removes the copyright protection that does not allow copying or decent playback. I have used it to copy older VHS tapes with were copyright protected (did not allow copying to DVD). The GREX removed the copyright protection and allowed me to copy the VCR tapes to a DVD for preservation.

Hi Jim, Yes that is what I use mine for, I have hundreds of hours of VHS tapes that I shot of my family. I am converting them and burning them onto DVD's. My VCR has two composite outputs, I connect one to my capture card and the other to the convertor and the hdmi output to my big screen monitor. Works great and the quality surprised me.

Yes. Recording to VHS requires a converter box if your signal source is an over-the-air antenna (the DVD side of this unit is play-only).

Yes. You can easily record old VHS home movies. The machine won't let you record coded DVD's or coded VHS stuff.

if you hook the VCR to the DVD recorder with the yellow/red/white connectors, yes theoretically you could record a VHS tape to DVD this way. sometimes though the VCR has encryption protection, so unless you have a pretty old VCR, it may or may not work.

Doubt that this will work for you. I assume you are trying to play your VCR and record on the DVD of your laptop? The VGA port on your laptop is an Output, so you cannot feed from the VCR into your VGA port of your laptop.

First I would need to know what kind of Camera you have, But with most camera'a you would have to transfer your footage from your camera to your PC and use a program that allows you to burn it to a DVD.

Yes, video saves to sd card then can be transferred your computer, then to a DVD. Just like taking a picture from a digital camera, transferring it to a computer then backing it up on a disc or flash drive. It really is a good device. You won't be disappointed. Hope this helps

That may be the case but to convert a DVD to a file on the PC you need a good program to convert it to that specific device format ie. mp4, AAC, WMV and so on. With Wondershare you just choose your specific device from a list and it does the rest for you.

That's a software issue. As long as you have the software to utilize either the dvd files or an iso, you can burn it to dvd

Although what I describe below sounds complex, it is very easy transferring home movies from a camcorder if you have the digital output via firewire on the camcorder. Use the 1-Touch Dubbing button and firewire input on the front of this recorder. 1.If you don't have firewire (which I assume you don't as you are talking about VHS-C), connect the camcorder to the recorder via composite cable. 2.Feed the recorder a fresh disc and it will automatically format it to "V" (video) mode. *** See Note below. 3.Set the length of the recording on the recorder. 4.Set recorder to use signal coming from the appropriate input (composite, Input 1 or similar). 5.Press Record on the remote, wait a few seconds for the recorder to initialize and then press play on the camcorder. 6.Take a nap and come back to a freshly burned disk. For the subsequent tape transfers if you don't need to change any settings, repeat steps 5 and 6 :-) *** Note: "V" vs. "VR" mode: VR (variable recording, I think) mode applies chapter marks whenever the time/date stamp changes. At least it does it for the firewire input, you will have to check for the composite input. In VR mode, you can go back and delete portions of the recording called "A-B erase". It just marks that area as unavailable but you will not get back the space. "V" (Video) mode automatically applies chapter marks at 6 minute intervals. This format is much more compatible to other players.

You should be able to. I only had this for a short time. See the review below. I bought this used DVD/VCR on line through Amazon. When I received it and tried it out, I found that when I played a VCR tape back the picture bounced around and sometimes the horizontal went out of sync. I returned the DVD/VCR for a prompt full refund. I only had this device for a short time. See a copy of my review below.

Not sure if you're still looking for an answer. But if you still want to know, the answer is "no". This is not a tool to transfer or import clips from one format to another. You will have to first convert your VHS movies into digital format before you can use this software for editing.

I know this response is almost a year old but if anyone sees this can you tell me how I go about copying a personal VHS tape to a DVD. Thanks, billh347@gmail.com

What about video tapes? If I attach a VCR, can I transfer my old VHS recordings onto a DVD using this DVR Recorder?
