Can someone help me.
I want to copy VHS tapes to VHS tapes, but am very technologically slow. If I connect one VCR to another VCR via the connections that I would use to play a portable DVD player, will I be able to tape what is playing through the VCR that is connected to the TV? If not, is there another way, outside of taking it to a professional?

You can spend your time alone, re-digesting past regrets, oh
Or you can come to terms and realize
You're the only one who cannot forgive yourself, oh
Makes much more sense, to live in the present tense

from the vcr that is playing the tape connect to the 'output' and for the vcr doin the recording connect to 'input' make sure the cables match up in the same jacks as they're colour coded (yellow = video, red/white = audio), i usually test it by recording 2 mins or so and playin it back

When you say input, do you mean to the TV.
Thank you so, so much.

the only connection to the tv should be the playing vcr via a regular cable

And no one makes me close my eyes
So I throw the windows wide
And call to you across the sky....
Cheap, easy, simple.
Ok, so I have basically blown two Sundays trying to accomplish what I think should be a simple task and it doesn't work. I am running the red, yellow, white cables from the back (output) VCR that is connected to the TV into the other VCR in the front (input). I play the tape on the VCR connected to the TV and press RECORD on the other VCR, I can hear it running, it says it's recording, but when I play the tape it's just "snow".
HELLLLLLPPPPPPP ME PLEASE!!!!!
I just saw the subsequent posts and will use them to try again, but I was hoping you can see some flaw in my process that will help me.
