DVD Burning

Recommended Posts

Guest drdrainoscott

I just got a VHS to DVD recorder and I would like to start transfering my tapes to DVD. How would I go about doing this, though, since the DVDs can only hold 2 hours worth of tape. Is there someone to record in LP mode on the DVDs?

2 hours? WTF, I figured it would be at least 3. Oh, and I don't know how, but include chapter skips, I can't stand DVDs that don't have that option.

I've never seen a recorder that didn't have at least 3 speeds.

 

These are called different names depending on the brand, but...

 

XP (HQ)=1 hr

 

SP=2 hrs

 

LP=3 hrs

 

SLP/EP=4 hrs

 

Some also have a 6 hour option.

Your DVD will hold 6 hours, but the quality will suffer greatly. I don't recommend putting more than 2 hours on 1 DVD.
