Title: I am still undecided
Product review: I bought this DVD Player/Recorder thinking I would be able to burn DVDs or have the option of creating a VHS of over 100 Hi 8 tapes (non digital). I connected my hi 8 camcorder and used the line 2 jacks on the front of the Sony DVD RDR-VX500 machine. I wanted to do partial recording of scenes on about 3 different hi 8 tapes and burn then on a DVD RW+ or a DVD RW- (I tried both). Then I wanted to take a few scenes from a few other VHS tape and burn them to the same DVD to have all the scenes I wanted from my HI 8 tapes plus those on a few WHS tapes on the same DVD But I don't seem to be able to do so. I then was going to load the DVD on my SONY laptop and then do some Digital Editing using Photoshop Premier editing.I may be screwing up in the finalizing process or even the recording process itself but I seem to be able to get parts of the Hi 8 tapes to transfer to the DVD , but not all, and I can't seem to get BOTH Hi 8 tapes and VHS to transfer to the SAME DVD[...]
