Copying from DVD to VCR

You can copy the contents of a DVD to a VHS tape.

1. Insert the disc you wish to copy into the DVD deck

and close the disc tray.

2. Insert a blank VHS video tape into the VCR deck.

3. Find the place on the DVD from which you want to

start dubbing using the PLAY, FWD, REW and
PAUSE functions. 
For best results, pause playback at the point from
which you want to record.

4. Press the COPY button on the front panel or

REC/OTR on the Remote Control. The DVD goes
into PLAY mode and the VCR goes into RECORD
mode. If the DVD disc menu appears, you may need
to press PLAY (

N

) manually to begin copying.

5. When the DVD is finished playing, press STOP (

x

to end copying. 

Notes:

If the DVD you are attempting to copy is copy protected,
you will not be able to copy the disc. It is not permitted to
copy Macrovision encoded DVDs (or Discs). “LOCK” is dis-
played in the display window. 

You must stop the copy process manually when the DVD
movie ends, or the unit may replay and record over and
over again.

When you stop the DVD playback during copying, the
recording on VCR is stopped automatically.
