Has anyone bought appliances like this online from Amazon or other companies? What is and where is Amazon's return policy?Īgain, thank you in advance for any help you can provide.1. We are willing to get a dvd recorder, but we don't necessarily have to have one. Can you record digital programs onto VHS tapes? Or do you have to use a dvd recorder for that? We LIKE VHS and we are not that interested (nor are we that impressed with) in copying our old VHS tapes onto dvds, though that seems to be the rage right now. These two points are very important to us. We need the ability to (once the country goes digital on June 12th) a) record our favorite programs with the vcr while watching other programs and b) be able to time record programs when we aren't at home. We need to buy a dvd/vcr player or recorder with a digital tuner and need to know which one and which way does it need to be hooked up so that we can do the following: I don't know what's going on with Majorgeeks, but what I write and what posts are different.Īny way, to answer your posts oldandconfusedagain, we already have a converter box, that's not the problem(s).

Once the country goes digital on June 12th, we want to be able to a) record our favorite programs with the vcr while watching other programs and b) be able to time record programs when we aren't at home. We do not want or have cable or satellite TV, therefore, we need to be able to pick up the local analog and digital stations. We are not the most electronics savvy people, but we are willing to learn. We returned the Toshiba (I don't recommend it) and tried to work on our old dvd/vcr player (the dvd problems were resolved but the vcr is still randomly doing it's "psycho dance"). We got the converter box (Magnavox from Walmart) and we also bought a Toshiba dvd/vcr player.
In the midst of this, our dvd/vcr player (with tuner) has been having some problems (vcr chews tape and sometimes/randomly ejects the tape, etc.). My family is at it's wits end about the whole conversion from analog to digital television, but didn't realize we would need a tuner with it to alledgedly do what we need to do.
