How do i hook up a vcr too a dvd player to record from my dvd player to vhs?

Answer 1

First of all, if the DVD is copy protected, that isn't going to work.
So, even knowing how to hook these 2 up will be no help. (You would go from the output jacks of the DVD player to the input jacks of the VCR. Video to video, Right channel sound to right channel sound, left channel sound)....
The only way that works is, if you save the DVD to your computer, using AnyDVD (trial for 21 days) by Slysoft.com for decryption. Use DVDshrink to shrink it to a size small enough to fit on a single sided DVD. Burn it to a DVD-+R. Now that copy you CAN copy to a VHS tape (but why would you want to?)

Answer 2

the first guy is correct commercially purchased DVDs are copy protected so you will not be able to copy from them.
however if you are copying a home movie from DVD to VHS, then it is a fairly easy process.
assuming your DVD player and VHS recorder have a SCART socket all you need to do is connect the SCART out on the DVD player to the SCART in on you VHS recorder. if you want to watch what you are recording then you need to either have an additional SCART out on your VHS player connected to your TV or use the Co-axial lead and tune in the VHS recorder on to a channel on the TV.

when you're hardware is correctly connected, you simply add a blank VHS tape to your VHS recorder, insert the DVD in to the DVD player, hit record on the VHS and play on the DVD.
turn the TV to the VHS channel/ SCART (euro) socket. and watch what you record. when the playback is finished click stop on the VHS and stop on the DVD. eject both recordings and do what you have to.
all this assuming you are using a stand alone DVD player and not the one built in to your computer.

and remember that if you do not own the copyright to the material stored on the DVD you need the legal permission of the copyright holder to make the copy.

why do you want to record from DVD to VHS? the quality of VHS is appaling compared to DVD. I'd strongly recomend you make a duplicate DVD and if this is a family DVD for example you consider buying a cheap £30 or less DVD player for the person whom you wish to give a copy of the DVD.

Answer 3

First off you can try to record a DVD but I doubt it, all DVDs are copy protected from being pirated.
Second why would you want to? That's like throwing away your Cd's for eight track tapes.
