I know s-vhs tapes are like the best quality but I only have a regular vhs player/ recorder. I know sony have a tape its called premium grade. so i guess this is better than a standard vhs tape. but i was wondering if the svhs tape would be better quality even in a regular vhs player /recorder? or there wouldnt be much difference? so i basically want to know what is the best quality tape to use with a regular vhs player not a s-vhs player thanks :)

An s-vhs tape in a regular vhs machine will give you pretty good results, well as good as vhs gets. Its probably the best type of tape you can buy.

I'm not sure what you mean by best quality vhs tape. Usually it will just say something like 'Extra High Grade' etc. I don't know if you can even find blank VHS tapes anymore..
If this is a Tivo, you could consider transferring the shows to your computer and then burning to a DVD disk, or simply leaving them on the comp. as an MPG file. If you do it this way, the quality will not go down over time, as it will with the VHS tapes.

why would you want to transfer dvd films onto vhs there is a reason why dvds were created no matter how great the quality of the vhs tape it will wear and in time it will be useless and another thing when you do transfer dvd to vhs you lose quality so imagine the quality of a DVD-R now imagine it at least 3x worse when transfering it to vhs
