5.4.3 Transferring a Video Tape Cassette Recording to DVD

as DVD. This can be done by connecting the VCR directly to the DVR via the connections
available on the front of the unit, and transferring the contents of the video cassette to DVD.
1.
Connect the VCR output terminals on the back of the VCR to the “Video IN/Audio IN”
sockets (Red/Yellow/White) on the front of the DVR using a 3-lead RCA cable.
2. Insert the video tape cassette into VCR and determine the start time (or counter) and stop
time (or counter) of the program you wish to transfer. Calculate and write down the actual
length of the program in minutes.
