What i am tryin to do is save the quality on a bunchof old football /basketball tapes I have on VHS. What i want to do is have the VHS tapes converted to DVD. I have been told try using the Panasonic ER-20 recorder, but it also will not play the DVD-R's in every recorder.

Does anyone have some advice as a way of doing this, and also having them play on all/most DVD players??? thank you,
