Record TV Shows to a VCR
There are so many movies and shows on TV you may want to watch later, so you want to record it for another day to watch or to just save it, so you can share it with friends and family, or whatever the reason is. Many of us have DVD recorders, DVR recorders, or Tivo's, so we really don't need a VRC recorder, but some of us still have them.
Instructions
1. Make sure the TV and VCR power is turned on before you begin to record; insert a blank cassette tape, or one that you want to record over. Be sure you check the cassette has an erase prevention tab in place, a small tab on the left side of the tape, if it doesn't have the tab, place a scotch tape over the missing tab.
2. If necessary, rewind or fast forward the tape to the point to which you want to begin recording on the tape. Press the up or down buttons to select the channel you want to record a TV show, or select the number channel with your remote control.
3. To select the desired tape speed, select the SPEED button, (SP, LP, or SLP) SP is to record for 2 hours, LP is to record for 4 hours, and SLP is to record for 6 hours. You may want to select SLP, so you can record up to 6 hours of recording time.
4. To begin recording, press the RECORD button, to start recording your favorite shows, or the shows that you will be recording for a friend or relative. Press the PAUSE button to temporarily stop recording the show, then press the PAUSE or RECORD button, to continue recording again.
5. To stop recording, just press the STOP button, this will finish your recording time. Rewind your VCR tape if you want to watch the show again, or to check to see how you recorded your TV show. Press the EJECT button to take out the tape from the VCR, and to watch at a later date.
