JVC SR-V10U (S)Vhs to JVC DR-M10S Dvd

[KeepItSimple]

Greetings!
Has anyone (like perhaps Lordsmurf) used a JVC SR-V10U S-vhs recorder to transfer vhs to dvd? Does it have all the video processing goodies that the HR-S9911 and some older JVCs have to get the best recording? I would be recording onto a JVC DR-M10S dvd recorder in XP unless L.S. okays any other speed .
Thanks!

I have a JVC SR-V10U fed into a AVT-8710 TBC, then fed into a JVC DR-M100S.
It's a wonderful setup.

The SR-V10U works at least as good as my HR-S9800, all the same goodies.

Great! Lordsmurf where would my Panasonic DMR-ES10 fit into this setup for it's filtering?
Thanks!

Put the ES10 after the VCR, before the JVC DVD recorder. Only use it when needed, as the ES10 can posterize images from time to time, maybe even add a slight ghost. But that is an acceptable loss given that you're using it to restore a much harsher error.

Use s-video all the way.

Where would the AVT-8710 that I'm going to buy go?

I prefer

JVC S-VHS > ES10 > AVT-8170 > JVC DR-M10

From testing, that is the most effective.

If you add a proc amp or detailer, put them between the 8710 and the DVD recorder in any order.

Just be sure you can easily get to the s-video cables to unplug with ES10 when its services are not required (which should be at least half of the time, if not more .... depends on your source quality). Same for proc amps and detailers, should you ever get any.

I have to get those too? The AVT-8710 has Sharpness/Tint/Color/Brightness/Contrast controls. Won't that do the same job?

[lordsmurf]

You don't have to get anything. But the AVT-8710 extras are a far cry from a BVP-4 or a DR-1000. It just depends on your needs.

The setup you've proposed so far already sounds excellent.

Lordsmurf,

I am considering a similar setup from VCR to AVT-8710 to JVC DVD Recorder (JVC DR-M100S). However, I only have a 13" tv that has just the black audio input connector. If I hook up my DVD recorder's red and white audio cables to the TV's single black audio input using a Y connector, will I experience any loss in sound quality compared to larger TVs containing separate red and white audio connectors? Is there another workaround? Thanks in advance for your comments.
