Re: DVD / VHS Combos

A lot of video stores have 'Video Stableizers" - an in-line box which you
attach to your video in/out line and you can tape all of the DVD to VHS you
want. Ive been doing this for years. The audio is hooked direct but you need
this box on your video line.

Device: OPTEX V0760
100% reliable
