I used a Panasonic VHS/DVD/HDD/Freeview combi when I was migrating from VHS. It is still going as one of my daughters uses it as her DVD player. Very reliable and well made with a good picture especially with upscaling.

Superb machines. Worth finding a bit more money for.

I cant recommend any, but there is the Panasonic DMR EZ48 for around £130 or this on ebay that might suite your needs.

Cheaper than those, but more long-winded, is the Ion VCR to PC kit, from there you can burn them on your pc to dvd.

Video capture via USB dongle is definately the way to go - I'm assuming here that these are tapes of TV recordings and camcorder stuff and not copy protected (macrovision).

I did it years ago and struggled because of disc space (had to capture 30 mins at a time!), but now when you can get a 1TB hard drive for £50 you can burn til the cows come home. Also with all the DVD authoring software out there as well as highly capable compression codecs you can't go wrong.
