How to Record DVDs Onto VHS Tapes 

I’m recording the Secret Life of Pets 1 onto a VHS for no reason...

You’re a lifesaver dude, I thought I’d have to get a DVD player and THEN hook that up to the vcr and with the combos I thought you could only go from VHS to DVD, not the other way around. Thanks ✌️

I’m recording Final Destination 3 onto VHS, because it’s my favorite movie and I’ve always preferred physical media lol. I also need it to complete my collection.

I'm putting Coraline on An VHS Tape Thx for your help

I did this years ago for my nephew as his family had no DVD. I had a Raite brand DVD player with a secret menu that would set the region code to anything and also had Macro vision disable. I just recorded over composite cables with stereo audio.

I have stranger things on DVD and I feel like I should be on VHS

This is beyond awesome my dude. I'll get a combo-player in the future and transfer Blade Runner: The Final Cut onto VHS. And hook that shit up to a split screen gaming monitor (somehow) Then i'll buy the vhs version of that movie online and just keep the cover + sticker.

thank you for showing me! I am a voice actor for comic dubs and animation and will deffinitely use this for my projects to show case them! having them on DVD and VHS will allow me easy portability! plus for if an when i decide for personal use!

Also where do you get your blank tapes and what type you prefer to use.

I didn’t even know you could do it the other way around

Thank you for making this video

Thanks man! Awesome video a d explanations!

I have seperate DVD and VCR. I tried to record from Dvd to Vhs, the picture is perfect but there's no audio on recorded VHS although the audio is fine on Dvd. Please let me know if you have the solution

This’ll definitely help me get Alpha and Omega onto a VHS. Thanks!

I want to do this so I can have all toy stories on VHS thank you!!

I was able to record Man of Steel and The Batman to VHS with no problem. Then, I tried Skyfall and The Dark Knight and the playback was scrambled. It was really hit and miss and I found out why. Some dvds are coded that way to prevent recording. I had no idea. I’m a vhs enthusiast and put them on tape just for me and wanted some modern movies on tape. Some of them work and some don’t.

How do I do this with a seperate dvd player and vcr? I'm trying to record some cartoons that I have on dvd, but I'm not exactly sure how to connect a seperate vcr/dvd player and record on my blank tape. I am struggling to find any video/site that makes sense, since I'm new to this. Anything at all would help! :)

I prefer VHS cause reasons

I backed up a good collection of old low budget horror movies from DVD to VHS, it was very worth, especially after my original DVD collection was stolen a decade ago.

Thanks, Ben!

Heres a dumb question, If the dvd is high quality, Will it actually look like and sound like vhs? Or will it still look pristine?

Hello a question, I want to burn a DVD to a VHS tape but my video does not read that DVD, how can I do it? if I could record with two videos ?? a greeting

I'm going to record my Family Guy DVD on a VHS camcorder but I don't have the record button on my VCR

You actually are legally allowed to make 1 back up of every movie you purchase so as long as you only copy the movie 1 time and you don't distribute it, it is leagal.

Can I do this without a combo player?

How are you avoiding macrovision?

When you record a widescreen DVD does it play back as widescreen on the VHS or does it convert it to fullscreen?

can i record youtube videos off xbox to vhs?

I have a couple of vhs tapas that are kind of ruin so since really enjoy watching movies on vhs.. I plan to record the.movie to a vhs...take the reel and transfer it to the vhs case that has the label. And i think it would be like i still have the original tape. Thats my plan.

I have a Panasonic Double Feature, and whenever I try to record while in DVD mode, a red stop icon appears in the top right corner. Is there a way to get around this? The DVD I'm using was burnt by me.

Can you do this without a combo player?

I looked up online to see if it was possible to buy newer movies as Vhs tapes then I got curious and looked up Joker 2019 VHS tape box wich I thought was cool and thought be cool to have if I did a joker vhs.... Also I honestly prefer using VHS tapes always loved the satisfaction of pushing and ejecting the vhs out of the VHS player 😂😂❤😅

Right now! Here I go, I'm pressing the record button on my Sharp 5-Disc, Dual Studio Quality Professional Audio Compact Cassette Tape, iPod Dock, SD card, USB, line input for Phones, Professional Studio Quality Stereo System! I just loaded a brand new blank Maxell UR 90 Minute Compact Cassette into Deck 2, the Playback/Record Deck, and hitting dubbing on the remote!!! The Professional Studio Quality Audio Compact Cassette Tape Deck#2 Door is automatically closing!!!! And the Professional Studio Quality Audio Transfer Begins!!! Unto A Metal Type IV, Studio Quality Audio Compact Cassette Tape!!! I'm transferring all of my favorite music from CD's and especially MP3's unto Professional Studio Quality, Metal Type IV Tapes!!! And my friends asked me to do the same!!! It seems like everyone is trying to transfer all of their important music unto Professional Studio Quality, Metal Type IV Tapes these days!!!!

How to do you do vhs to dvd

Thank you so much :)

I buy blanks vhs tapes on thrift stores. I also have a dvd/ vcr combo. And I have a tv that has vhs/dvd combo but the vhs on the tv doesn’t work. I put a dvd movie on the tv and plugged in the dvd/ vcr combo. I’m recording a dvd movie to vhs the movie WAR. I’m gonna start recording movies from Netflix, only movies that are full screen.

For me it keeps on going blue each 3 seconds

I once tried this but it did not work. I used a Magnavox combo.

can i record back onto a dvd from the tape i recorded onto?

Preserve DVD onto VHS? Lol! Dvds are a bit more reliable on not getting messed up

So im so confused can you explain?

Thank you.

Thank you

I’m recording the Joker movie in VHS

thanks!

So does this work with any vhs/dvd combo player?

Wow this is so cool. A way we can watch nnewer films the old fastiond way.

This only works on your specific vhs dvd combo. Not other big brand names like Sony

You didn’t talk about how you have the cables setup

Can you do it with the DVD/VCR combo?

Does this work if you play the dvd on an Xbox One?

You can record onto it by ps1 - s2?

My VCR player doesn't let me record the DVD into the VHS, but that looks cool.

You can record the Sonic movie, not the 1990s anime movie, the 2020 movie.

Cool

Also remember, recording vhs in SP will give better quality than slow speed.

nows my chance to make a vhs of hairspray (2007)

I already know how to do this, I justed wanted to if other people did it too.

PLZ GUIDE ME WHAT IS MORE LONG LASTING ? MEANS ON CD/DVD OR ON VHS TAPES ?? BCAZ ON CD/VCD/DVD IT MAY CURRUPT OR EASILYE DAMAGES HAPPENED DUE TO SCRATECHES ETC ETC ..............! FROM-----------------F..K.

I’m here because I’m a weirdo who likes analog and the aesthetic of VHS.

I DO NOT AGREE! If you own a DVD or blu ray Movie, you can make copy on cd or VHS. It's not illegal. Just do not sell! that's all.
