[gui-talk] Fw: Help With using a DVD Recorder/ VCR Combo

[Carrie Schaffer]

I sent this first time, but didn't wonder if anyone got this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I purchased this product to try and dub all my VHS tapes both comerical and 
movies that were taped off the TV onto DVD. I'd then like to use DVD audio 
extractor to then extract the audio from those recorded DVD's.
Thanks
Carrie
