Liteon 5007 - Pauses (for a few seconds) when recording

[raygunxyz]

Hello
I've had a the LITEON 5007 for a few months, and it has been a little trooper, recording shows off of TV. But the other day I found a few old home videos I wanted to transfer to DVD. Well thats when the problem start, since these videos are no the best copies (they were record on VHS in the 80s) they have some static/fuzz. Well, it pauses at these parts and then records with the video comes in clear again. Is there any way to fix this, I have hook up my VCD through RCA outputs and RF and it still doesn't work. My VCR doesn't have S-video so I could not try that. PLEASE if any one can help please do.
Thanks in advance...

I know what you are talking about but not sure how to fix it. I noticed when I turned to a channel that had no picture or a fuzzy (static) picture the 5007 didn't see anything and it goes into "pause" mode. The unit pauses taping until it sees a picture and then starts to record again. I never tried to find a fix to that because I didn't need to find a fix for it. I don't know if there is a fix? If they made it from the start to pause the unit until it sees video then it's bult in to pause. I guess you could try one of those software cracks for the Lite on and hope that when it sees fuzz or static that it ignores it thinking that you have no picture and keeps taping no matter what. Maybe you could try one of those boxes used for getting around copy protection but that would suck to spend money for something that "might" work. Maybe, if you have another vcr, you can try playing it back with that one. Maybe, the one you are using sends a blank signal to the Lite on but another does a better job playing back the bad parts of the tape and keeps a picture or signal going to the Lite on?
