Roxio encodes at a 9Mbs constant bit rate that means 1 hour on a single layer DVD and about two hours on a Dual Layer DVD.

Tks:  Does that mean I will only get max of  1 hr recording time on this tape regarding if I set longer time.  I'm using Sony DVD-r 120min 4.7 gb disc. Tape continues to ply properly to the end after recording stops. ??????

No, wrong conclusion...

If it is stopping at the same point, I would bet there is a glitch or blank spot in the tape at that point and it stops because of Signal Lost ;)

As to 'Recording Time', it depends on Quality you set it for:

Record DVD - Set Quality.jpg

(these are with a 4.7 GB, you can double that with an 8.5 GB)


You also need to realize that NO ONE will recommend using Record DVD! :huh:

You have already found out the reason why :lol:

If you use Record - Edit - Save, you don't waste DVD's or your time when minor problems are encountered...

Try that method but save a little trouble and make a test capture or 2 in the area where the other one has been stopping. If it will record through that area of the tape, then start one from the beginning ;)

This is the same problem that I'm having. When there is a blank spot on the VHS tape, there is a Signal Lost and it stops recording. I really don't want that "feature" since there are so many VHS tapes that have blank spots. I just want to capture the whole thing and edit out the blank spots later. I've tried setting a duration and it still stops recording.

How can I bypass this and record an entire VHS tape without a premature finish?

Some of the devices seem sensitive to "blank spots" in the recorded tape.

Try stopping  the tape  - Fast Forward to the end - Rewind  back to the beginning and try again, this has worked for some users

Yes that is about all you can do and/or record all the different segments and then put them together as one DVD... ;)

You should be capturing to your hard drive. If you have blank spots on the tape and your system stops at each blank spot then you will have to capture each video clip separately.

Perhaps you could film a longer video with your camcorder and then see if you can capture longer then 29 secs.

Yes, this was driving me crazy too, my solution was to connect my camcorder to my VHS player, and then connect the VHS player to the Roxio usb. Now it shows as having a constant signal being fed to the the program, and so now I can run a  6 hr tape full of gaps and forget about it (don't forget to set the capture length - otherwise). Also had to adjust the recording sound to eliminate choppy noises.

Thanks for that 'Jim1234'...

We have had others try using a Pass-through like that but no one had reported any success...

I think the problem there is that they have a VHS as the Source and can only pass-through another VHS Player or DVD Player. In that case the signal is not changed at all so the problems follow along :(
