Yes, I know I am like 15 years behind on this. Yes, I still use a VCR, so let's move on from that. I am also very stupid and could never get anyone to help me try to buy the right equipment, hook it up and show me how to use it, to convert to using a DVD recorder versus VCR so that's why I never changed over. Now I see you can't even buy them anymore. I want to try to find some on eBay but I don't even know what I am looking for to know what to get. I want it so I can play my current tapes (I have the VCR to play them) and have a DVD recorder that will record whatever is playing on my TV (either my tapes or Live current events), so that whatever is playing on my TV screen the DVD recorder will copy and record.
If you record broadcast events on a DVD recorder, what is the exact make/model of the specific device you use so I can try to find something on eBay? I just spent a stoopid amount of money buying more tapes from Amazon, but eventually I bet I won't even be able to buy tapes anymore, and the ones I have going back to the 90s are probably disintegrating as we speak. Several years ago I was going thru a bit of an emotional rage/breakdown and pitched a bunch of my skating tapes and other stuff, which I still hate myself for to this day. I at least want to try to save the Nationals, Worlds and Olympics coverages that I still have on tape, and be able to DVD record those events in the future.
Or at this point should I just say fcuk it and give it up once I can't buy tapes anymore? That's what I get for procrastinating and rage pitching all the stuff I loved the most in my life.
