capture and edit from non-copyrighted (homemovie) dvd? With this software can you capture video from an existing non-copyrighted (home movie) dvd and then edit the video and re-burn to dvd or save on your computer?

Absolutely! Not that I'm encouraging illegal activity, but, if you have a DVD decrypter, you can save a copyrighted DVD to disc (via the decrypter) and import it into VS using the import wizard (just remember to look for the saved/decrypted folder, not a disc in a drive).

Thats two questions, yes if you use this device (which I recommend for mac, I have problems using it on my pc) you can transfer video to a dvd from your computer. the licensing problem I would answer as to say you are not technically suppose to make copies or transfer movies at all that are copyrighted. That decision is up to you.

I am certainly no expert on this subject; I only know there are machine specific requirements: I own a DVD recorder that allows me to edit the commercials from TV shows I record. In order to do this I must use -RW discs.I also have a DVD duplicator with which I can make copies of personally recorded home videos. This machine requires me to record the master copy on +RW format.

Yes, that is how I'm using it. Obviously, when you dub vhs to dvd, it is of no use, as the copying doesn't go through the jacks, rather it is done internally. But, you can record to the DVD from a protected source and it works fine.

All I know is you can record your movie to your DVD recorder if your have an output jack in your TV that you can plug-in to the input jack of your DVD recorder. There is also another way, if you have a device that produces your movie, instead of plugging the OUTPUT cable to your TV INPUT jack, plug it in to your DVD recorders INPUT jack and then from the OUTPUT jack of your DVD recorder connect it to the INPUT jack of your TV. Hope this will help.

I have burned a DVD+R and a DVD-R on the Sony DVDirect then used other software on the computer to rip the video off and keep it on the computer as an mpeg digital file.Then I have been able to edit that mpeg audio-video file in other software. Ultimately through the computer, this reedited version of the content could be burned back to DVD when the editing has completed.

I was wondering if this model has a copyright protect chip, or have folks been successful in recording from Cable Company DVRs? Last night, on my recently-purchased LG model DVD Recorder, I tried to record on DVD-R an episode of The Closer, and got an error "copyright protected -- cannot record" message. I would purchase this Toshiba if I knew it won't have that chip that makes it an expensive doorstop. Thanks.

that's a little confusing but I think what you're saying is dvd output to DVD recorder I believe it will work but copyright stuff probably won't copy

It'll capture video for you and burn to DVD or just drop it to a file for you. If you want to do anything special with the DVD or record to BluRay you'll need different software.

Greetings, yes you can record from cable make sure you loop the cables to record into the DVD recorder. Make sure you get a really good brand of DVD+RW best to go to an office supply store.

Does this record cable tv programs like from HBO that normally would be blocked (copy protected) if trying to record to a dvd recorder (external dvd player recorder). Some cable channels will record if that channel allows it (very few do). "Copy protected" or similar message would normally be seen and no recording would take place.Have you tried to record cable tv with it?

Well you don't "record over" on a dvd recorder (it's not like video tape). You can press the "top menu" button on the remote. Then you delete an existing recording to make more room for new recordings.

I just read that the .MOD extension of the JVC can be changed to .MPG for recognition by Windows Media Player and should work with other software since it is a standard format. (You can do this by copying the file onto your PC, right clicking and renaming. With this extension you should be able to burn to a DVD. I am interested in purchasing this camcorder but will NOT do so if I have to purchase extra software. If someone tries this, please let me know if you are successful. JVC appears to receive much better reviews than Sony other than the burning issues. The article I read can be found at http://www.usatoday.com/tech/products/2006-12-06-camcorder-hard-drives_x.htm.

I'm looking for the same answer. I did notice that the very early reviews of this product did mention that a screen popped up that said the material was copyrighted and, therefore, stopped. Unless someone can tell us otherwise, I suspect the answer is no. I have two old VHS movies that have never been released in DVD format and would like to preserve them for my own personal use only. Has ANYONE been able to copy commercial VHS movies to DVD with this program??? Thanks.

I believe that you can record on either the VCR or the DVD, but having said this please note that I returned this device because it did not work as expected.

I believe you can use only software included unit (Black Magic recorder).Once movie is imported onto computer then you can use other software to edit at will.
