Q: I have roughly 300 VHS movies, purchased over about 10 years. I want to transfer them to DVD to preserve my collection. VHS player won't be long for this world and need to do something NOW. Is DVD + or - the way to go? Tried a few so far. Some won't copy. Is it the DVD+R I used? Asked on 8/2/2010 by Janet from FL Know the answer? Answer this question 9 answers A: It will vary based on the type of DVD reader you have. Both formats will work, but it is best to check the compatibility with your drive. Answered on 8/12/2010 by Customer Care from Staples A: Hello Janet if your VHS movies are home movies it should be able to record. But if it's a Movie VHS that you bought at a store, such as Disney, or a t.v. show, etc. It will not record, because it is encrypted (copyright). On these VHS movies they have something to prevent them from recording. So it can't be transferred, all you can do is buy them on dvd. Answered on 8/25/2010 by Anna A. from Bronx, New York A: It could be the machine that you are using to make the copy. I do not think that it matters if you use DVD+ or DVD-. I have been able to put at most six movies onto one disc, which makes storage an easy one. If there are movies that you really, realy want to copy, I suggest typing in the movie into your browser and see what is available that is all ready on a DVD or available to download. When you copy a video to DVD, you get exactly what is on the video. Any smudge or wear on the video will be very visible on the DVD. In the worst case scenario, I would transfer the video onto another video until you could transfer it onto your computer, thereby allowing you the fastest and easiest way to make as many copies of it as you would like. No matter what route you decide to take, I wish you luck in selling the videos. Not too many people have video machines these days. Answered on 10/26/2010 by Back Up Freak from Hartford, CT A: your dvd player is a - wount play + Answered on 11/2/2010 by mr. happy from pa A: There may be two factors, the recording unit itself and the anti-copy code on the VHS. I backed up my VHS to DVD by using the inexpensive CyberHome DVR 1600. The manual specifically said to use +R and suggested DVD makers, so double-check the manual on your DVD unit. Your home movies on VHS don't have this, but there may be a copy prevention code on factory VHS movies. This is an analog signal that can be bypassed by going through a digital movie camera. Be mindful of copyright laws. Answered on 11/3/2010 by Shybuoy from Pasadena, CA A: Different DVD recorders have actual preferred blank DVD media use, check whether your user manual indicates + or -R to use when recording. Also copyrighted movies (purchased or rentals) cannot be transferred over to DVD as its illegal to do so. Good luck with this... Answered on 11/3/2010 by Pacquiao Fan, Go Manny! from Oldsmar, FL A: Yes most computers use DVD+. Some movies will not let you copy them but you should be able to copy most anything to these as long as you have enough space. Answered on 11/13/2010 by Big Al from Graham Wa. A: Janet, you need to check your burner. Both - and + will rip perfectly good movie DVDs but your burner might not be able to rip onto one or the other. Although the newer burners can burn all those formats. Now you did say "copy," which makes me wonder if you were trying to copy a DVD (the movie DVDs usually have copyright encyrption on them which will make this difficult to do without a hack). But a straight rip from raw footage should not have a problem. Good luck! Answered on 1/4/2011 by DogMom from South Florida A: I have copied more than 3,000 movies from VHS to DVD+R using Panasonic Dual Mode Recorders (first the DMR-ES35V, and recently the DMR-EZ48V). I have never had a problem using these Memorex DVD+R discs. I cannot say that for other brands of discs I've tried. Answered on 3/6/2011 by capt. whoo from Tampa, Florida
Q: What disc product do I need to transfer pictures stored on my computer to a disc?? Asked on 4/27/2010 by tigertamer from warrenton, va Know the answer? Answer this question 2 answers A: This item will work for large amounts of photos. I would also recommend item 452556 for standard CD storage. Answered on 5/6/2010 by Customer Care from Staples A: Depends on how many pics you have and what kind of disc burner your computer has. You can get about 300 pics on a CD. If you need a lot more storage space and have a DVD burner, then any blank DVD will be better. Buy the ones on sale, you can get DVD's for as low as $.18 ea. 4.7 GB Answered on 6/15/2010 by tommyboy0690 from Boston, Ma.
