Maybe someone on here will know. Is it possible to record FROM a DVD TO a Vhs tape? See, I have a few episodes I would like to copy for a friend, but all he has is a VCR. All mine are on DVD. What's the best way to make a vcr copy of a dvd, or can it be done at all? Thanks for any help!

The cool thing is my RCA dvd recorder has a built in vcr so all you have to do is put in a disc then a blank tape..press copy disc and bam, its done.Only other way is to plug a dvd player into a vcr using RCA jacks. You will have another problem to deal with if its copyrighted material you're trying to copy. Also for best results, be sure to use a high quality VHS tape and record in SP mode!
