What specific Roxio program and app are you using to copy your VHS tapes to DVD?. How are you connected....more details please.

Regardless of what you currently have, there are some basics. You need a way to play your VHS tapes, presumably a VCR. You need a device to capture the signal from your VCR, such as the USB device that Roxio sells, or some other device (many/most are USB connected). You need software to capture the signal from the device which usually comes with the device. Connect your VCR to the capture device, connect the device to your computer, start the software, start capturing/recording from the device, start playback on the VCR.

 

From there, you'll usually want to do some editing of the captured video, in Easy Media Creator, you'll likely be using VideoWave to do this and to put the pieces together. Then you put that into MyDVD to "author" your DVD, add menus and chapter points, then "render" that to either a set of video folders, or to a .ISO image file, then burn that to DVD.

 

There is also a program, Roxio Easy VHS to DVD that will let you capture your video and burn it directly to DVD, assuming you don't want to do any editing.

 

So, there's a broad overview. Give us some details of what you have, what you've tried, and maybe we can help get you going.
