Yes, I finally figured it out, and it's easier than we thought. First of all a VHS/DVD combo, will not work. You need two (2) VHS machines, To bypass the copy write block, you'll also need a digital video stabilizer, and you can buy one of those at their website www.checkhere22.com The stabilizer get's hooked up between the two VHS machines. Make sure that you VHS/DVD machine is you second machine. I've been doing this for years, and it works. Have fun, and now enjoy recording
