This Funai DVD / VHS combo will accept stereo audio (red & white or black RCA plug) and composite video (yellow RCA plug) inputs, as well as S-video (S-video plug) input from any external device. If your TV set has an audio output (headphone jack or RCA jack(s)) output, and a video output (yellow RCA jack or S-video jack), you can connect the audio and video OUTPUTS of your TV to the INPUT jacks on your Funai. You can then record, using the Funai, whatever audio and video is being output from your TV set. Since this Funai IS NOT a digital video recorder (DVR), in the conventional sense, you will have to tune the TV to whatever channel you want to record, and then start the Funai recording process manually using Funai controls. Since the Funai does not have a TV tuner, or a type F coaxial cable connector for connection to cable, satellite or TV antenna wiring, you cannot use the Funai to set up TV channels to be tuned, nor a time to start recording automatically. Other than your TV set, you can use any device capable of receiving a TV signal (audio and video), such as a standard VCR which includes a tuner, or a cable box or satellite receiver, to provide signals to your Funai for recording. You could use a VCR to record your desired TV programming on a VHS cassette, and then use the Funai to copy the VHS tape to DVD. Video quality from this process will be fairly poor, since VHS tape recording does not provide the TV quality you're used to getting from either DVDs or from your cable, satellite or antenna signal provider. The quality of DVD video recorded using your Funai cannot be any better than the video from the source you use (output of your TV set, output from a VCR, or a tape made with your VCR). If you have a cable or satellite box with audio and composite video (yellow RCA jack) or S-video outputs, that's probably the best signal source you can use with the Funai. Good luck :)

Sorry, I've never used Blu-Ray, but I don't believe it is. This unit has worked very well for dubbing DVD's and tapes to DVD, but I can't find my owner's manual - I just moved and it's in one of many boxes. I did some online Googling and the specs I found that said what formats are playable did not include Blu-Ray.

Yes; please see page 54 of the manual for details on dubbing.http://www.funaiport.com/upload/MAGNAVOX/Manual/MDR537H_EN_OM.pdf

Yes, it is able to dub from VHS to DVD and from DVD to VHS. Great for preserving personal videos. (If the original is copy-protected, the device will detect this, stop recording, and give you an error message.)

I purchased a Toshiba dvd/vcr combination recorder/ player. It is model # DVR670KU. I have never been able to get it to work. I have a Sony LCD Digital Color TV (Bravia). Even the cable guy could not get it to work. I bought it on Ebay (first mistake) and they would not take it back. I have had it 2 years and yet to get it to record or play a dvd. What am I doing wrong.

I don't think your VCR has a digital tuner, so you'll have to get one of those converter boxes (remember the converter coupons in, I think, 2009?) so your VCR will understand the digital TV signals. You hook your antenna to the converter, then go from the converter to the VCR.

Tunerless is no big deal. The tuners in VCRs were for ANALOG signals. Now it is all digital, so either some kind of cable service or a digital converter box, connected properly, is what is needed.. The tuning is done by either of those devices. The VCR just accepts the signals and either records them or just passes them on to the TV, depending on how it is set..

>>One thing I've found is that you need a >>"Video Enhancer" to attach to your unit.No you don't. I was able to dub commercially-released video tapes to DVD using this unit and no other hardware.

That's interesting. I ALWAYS go to DVD before dubbing (I double-check my dubbing speed while there). I'll have to try it your way once and see what happens. Thanks for posting.

No it had to have a tuner it, so you can watch one cannel as you are recording another. Philips DVP3340V DVD VCR Combo had no build in tuner.

You can record with either the vcr or the dvd mode and you can record your vcr tapes onto dvd discs.. For months, I was using it for only vcr recording, and then decided to catch up with the times and bought some dvd-rw dics. I love the dvd recording now that I'm using it. The only down side, that I see is that you have to re-format the dvd discs before recording again and it takes a while to initialize when you insert the disc in the machine.

I am looking to buy a dvd recorder that will record from vhs. I have sooo many videos of family that I want to transfer to dvd in order to preserve them. This tuner vs tunerless thing is confusing me. Can someone explain it to me? I do not have cable tv and do not want it.

This was purchased by me for my mom so she was the primary user. I was under the impression that you could record VHS over to a DVD. From the product description directly:*One-touch/programmable recording and playback of DVD+R/RW, DVD-R/RW formats and VHS cassette; dubbing from DVD to tape and vice versa. So, you can do both. Tape to DVD and DVD to tape.

Sadly, this unit just plays DVD's. You'll need a combination VHS tape & DVD recorder to do what you asked about.

We were excited to transfer home video (VHS) to DVD. However, the dubbing stops everytime there is a break when the tape goes from one subject to the next. Sometimes there is static on the VHS where we linked tapings together on one VHS or a few blank seconds. The only thing that has worked is to reset the dubbing every few minutes when it stops dubbing, but that's a lot of time and work. We have to sit there and "babysit" the tape. Is there any way around this that we can put the tape and DVD in and have it dub from beginning to end????
