- Quick video on the Panasonic DMR-ES45VS DVD Recorder that outputs VHS in an upscaled 729p/1080i....simply amazing! Plus some other nifty features it possesses!
vhs films brings so much memories because it was my childhood. In those days you can invite your friends over and watch a film, it was more like a family entertainment more than watching a film, now everything is online and you dont have people coming over your house anymore
I bought this player off of Ebay immediately after watching this video. It arrived a few days ago and after testing I couldn't be happier with it! Thank you for this video, I have been searching for something like this for years!
That's probably one of the last units ever made. I remember when 5 years ago Walmart was still selling these type of units.
2013 i believe
This is how the VHS looked like in maximum quality
Ur wrong because it isn't designed to run on a flatscreen.
@@siphobrisloks8133 Sony Trinitron tv was flat crt 🤔
@@SAM-ru4vx well my Trinitron wasn't exactly that flat...a little curved sideways
@@siphobrisloks8133 bro,if it's HDMI,then it can run on an LED TV
@@prakashm1468 If you actually had a brain, I said that it won't look as good on the flatscreen because it wasn't designed to run in it. Just look at the PS3 it looks bad on flatscreen but amazing on the crt.
Bruh, this thing is flawless. The dual HDMI is perfect for future proofing (for now), the reading & writing to & from, S-video & component, the aesthetic is nice but I’m more blown away how minty this one is. Doesn’t have a single scratch and looks fresh outta the box. Friggin SD card slot?? You kiddin me?? I’m in love 😍😍😍 you got extremely lucky taking this home from work and saving it from a garbage bin😂😂 I’m so fuckin jealous.
I have a later model. The Panasonic DMR-EZ48V, it also outputs VHS over HDMI and upscales them to 1080p. It looks amazing.
Wow, I just bought the same one you have at a flea market today. Sweet!!! I had no idea it did this.
Just bought that model from eBay for £87.50. Hopefully worth every penny.
I have both of those. The one in the video is more reliable
Wait you can watch VHS on your 65 inch 4K tv. With hdmi
@@Jordan-fn5rj Yes.
Gotta say, you are the only person who I've seen who actually clearly stated and demonstrated the capabilities of this machine. I've seen others from what had to be earlier and later versions of this device with hdmi capabilities. I can assume they upscale the vhs footage as well, but again no clear statements from any other users.
I have this same unit except for the HDMI ports. These are excellent players/recorders
Can confirm these are awesome! You can record VHS to DVD and it comes out perfect. I paid like $498AUD new even now they are not cheap but worth every penny imo especially for us old school tech heads.
what model do you have? i want to buy one
@@StevenMcKenzie83 The exact model in the video, I've since moved onto capturing VHS footage digitally but I still have it in my cabinet.
@@hardcorehardware361 what do you use now?
@@StevenMcKenzie83 An Elgato HD60 Pro capture card but you can use one of those cheaper capture devices with OBS which is a significantly cheaper way of doing it.

how to go from dvd to vhs
I picked up a DMR-EZ485V the other day. Great device.
Can this player record on dual layer dvds? A problem with my LG-RC388 dvd/vhs combo is that it can only record up to 90 min with the highest quality setting on DVD-R and can't handle dual layer discs which should give longer recording time.
I have a Panasonic VCR hi Fi stereo with hd video. Unfortunately it's picture is not clear now and Iam unable to find a technician to repair it.
Ha, one of my friends parents bought one of these for basically nothing years ago and needed my help to figure out the dvd recording functions
I generally use a S-VHS player and S-video to a CRT or into a RetroTink2x to HDMI on my 4k LG
A fellow retrotink user!
I have the retrotink 4x and have been looking into getting a vhs player. Did vhs do RGB at all or is s video the best option?
not needed, signal is clean enough, no TBC function needed
I am thinking about getting such a unit. But I would like to get inside and clean the vhs parts. To prevents tape eating etc. It gets dirty inside!!!
I have a remote for mine but most of the functions are redundant now there is a lot of old analogue TV functions on it
Looking at this unit,do i need the remote to turn the volume down or can i use my tv remote to turn it down?
Omgggggg I need this.
Time to make some investments
I need this unit!
How do you adjust the tracking on this thing or is it automatic? I can't find anything on my machine for tape tracking. Also can you tell me if VHS head cleaning cassettes are any good? What is the maximum size SD card I can use, and can I record DVD onto it? Can I plug a pioneer blue ray rom for a PC into it (and will it read it)? If anyone out there knows.
All of these combos have HDMI output but most only do DVD. Any list of these combos that output VHS and DVD to HDMI?
You should use a crt tv for a vcr for the best quality.
i need that.
I was able to find a Panasonic DMR-E75V combo unit. I’m just planning on converting VHS to digital so hopefully this will do it! Are you familiar with the E75V? Any info you could share with me concerning if the VHS is upscaled when dubbed to the dvd side and if it will dub as non-interlaced. Thank you!
my guess is, it will put side bars on the sides, unless it has menu options to set it for 4:3
What is the model number of this player?
I have DMR-S99 he is the best ever made model but it is rare to find!!
Duude, please tell me you still have this, I'd love to buy it.
If you play a VCR with Dolby Surround? Does it send the surround audio over HDMI too?
Yes. The surround track is recorded out of phase on the left and right channels. Everything that’s exactly in phase goes to the center.
I have 5 of these (JVC,Samsung, Panasonic,Toshiba,Sony). All from thrift stores in the last 5 years - hard to find. All 5 output both dvd and vhs via HDMI. I run them through my Oppo blu-ray player which has the ability to improve the video quality.
Lucky! I stepped into an LG (V192H) and it locks to DVD in HDMI mode. The manual conveniently omits that part (I've seen some where they'd tell you upfront there's no VHS over HDMI)
I have a Samsung DVD/VHS combo that uses the HDMI connection, but just wondering if it automatically upscales as it doesn't say on the unit.
@@eddythegamer123 Yeah, cool ey. But I don't know if it actually gets upscaled even though I bought an upscaler too.
Bump
menu options ?
Thank you for this presentation. I am in the process of copying VHS tapes-to be up loaded onto the internet. My question is, will this
will this what?
i know of my DMR-ES35V that it will, no TBC needed.
I have a combo just like this without the HDMI port. However the component out applies for both DVD and VHS. Not just DVD. Which is awesome. Huge and I mean huge difference. And I’m wondering if I can do the same thing by recording VHS onto DVD and vice versa because I would love to put the original Star Wars tapes that I have from the 80s on to a DVD. I love retro tech and especially when it was released in the middle like this bad boy. Because there’s so much interesting specs that go into it.
Which player do you own?
Which combo unit do you have? This is exactly what I'm looking for for my set-up.
Whitejarrah I have the same model as you lady and the tramp never looked so luxuriously stunning
please i want one
i have maybe 30 videos from 2009 i want to play😭
The version of this solution in Europe has additional 2 scart sockets ,
How does it perform on a capture card?
I know of mine DMR-ES35V that it does not need a TBC, signal is super steady. HDMI needs passtrough i guess, for HDCP. component and composite are jus okay. :)
yes this is a freak machine lol! love it
does anyone know why I wouldn't be able to plug the hdmi from this machine directly into an elgato camlink and capture footage that way? I am attempting to digitize my old vhs's with this machine via the method described and the elgato just can't seem to detect any signal. I know it's the elgato because everything works fine when I hook it up to the tv using the same setup. TIA
That's because of the handshake and HDCP within HDMI , just use a HDMI passthrough device ( a converter) if your talking about using HDMI...
@@xavierzander4201a hdmi splitter is what he needs, that strips the hdcp from the video signal and then a capture device should not have a problem recording
It’s Something about the VHS 📼 LOOKthat is satisfying
yeah i miss my childhood days, I used to bring my friends over to watch vhs films it was so fun, it felt like we were a family more than watching a film
Can you tell me does it have a dubbing button ?
you can dub after you record with a computer
I can see the bottom line in the home video
Can you upscale a VHS tape to 1080? i have read it is not possible...
yes, buy a $15 upscaler
And the best part you don't hear the noise in the background from playing a original VCR with av cables
Where is a headphone jack? Where are the adjustable audio input meters?
Great I been wanting to find a vcr that will play on hdmi my copy of encino man
Can anybody tell me if this upscales the VHS and copies it to the dvd. In the video it says it upscales it to play on a tv but I didn’t hear the guy say that it upscales it when copying it to dvd. I.e. the new copy made that is now stored on the dvd is in 720 or 1080i?
it brings the vhs to 720p but when it brings it to DVD, its then compressed as 480p
Is there a way to capture it onto a dvd upscaled at 720p, capture the signal going to the tv?
That is literally the one we use!
(Which is kind of hilarious, because I just googled 'VHS player with HDMI Output' out of total curiosity, and did not expect the result to be the one we already own X'D)
@@GrimAndGrin k
SP speed and Super clean tell me about Hydrogen oxide. I don't know what this Guy used He Dunked this Sony HIFI VCR in a Solution 2005 and he knew his stuff ? Thanks bro
is this the same model but in the UK DMR-EZ45V
Look in the back. If the machine has an HDMI output, that means you're on the right track.
My question is how often does it eat the tapes?
when it gets hungry….
is the Panasonic DMR-ES46V the next level up version?
i guess doenloading the PDF manual will tell you some thing.
Dammit. just checked mine thinking "I didnt notice the HDMI output???" DMR-ES35V ... so close!
Don't worry, it has also component, put a to HDMI converter on that one, i've got also the ES35V it is great, because you don't need a Time Base Corrector, to digitize VHS to file all outputs have a very clean video signal (do not use scart for that on EU models).
I have this exact dvd player at my house so funny
Question does it only work with this particular model or does it work with the later models?
there are later models that work. however not all
later models have vhs go over hdmi with upscaling
@@NeonPolygons White Jarrah mentions the 48V having the same vhs over hdmi upscaling. So im thinking of getting that one since the 45VS is more rare.
Yeah but how do you adjust the tracking?
Auto-tracking was already a thing back in the 80's.
I have the same unit, but the remote control stopped working. Then I ordered one from Amazon that didn’t work either. I checked both of the remote controls are fine in a different Panasonic vcr. Does anyone have any idea where the problem is?
Then you need to do troubleshooting on the Sensor located at the front...
@@prakashm1468 can you please tell me how to troubleshoot this vcr?
@@yayahkhan117 Bro,you have to disassemble the Top Cover & Bottom Cover.. and then the Front Panel..have you fixed a VCR before?..and check the Remote Sensor pack located on the front panel PCB
@@prakashm1468 Thanks for your concerns. Whenever I open something like this I further damage it. I don’t know how to fixes these things.
@@yayahkhan117 then best you hold till you find a qualified professional who can fix it... you also need a digital multimeter at least to test those components in the Sensor Pack....and it could also be some minor issue like disjointed solder,that can happen due to age..
Anyone knows if it read SECAM VHS ?
i know from mine ES35V it has a setting for that, but not for the French Secam tv system …east only
I have one of these but it's a Funai model and when you watch the vhs tapes over hdmi it looks great but it does this weird flashing when the picture gets brighter or darker idk if there is something wrong with my unit or they just do that please reply if you own one and have the same issue or if you don't have the same issue and it works dvds look fine no flashing picture.
u will need softwear for to adjust colour in ur pc
I know I'm answering a question posted a year ago, but the answer might benefit others.
I am guessing you were trying to watch a store-bought movie. Most of those movies were equipped with a copy protection scheme called "Macrovision", which would wreck havoc with the signal on the recording VCR. Usually you'd be getting oversaturated colors and the picture would switch between being very bright and very dark. As a "bonus" you'll get random 10-seconds bursts of distorted picture.
The CZcams channel Technology Connections has a video on MacroVision, which I'd recommend watching if you wish to know more.
Also, Funai? Yeah, not the greatest manufacturer outthere. Compared to how Panasonic decks process VHS tapes, Funai usually looks like someone fudged the details and smeared the colors, especially strong and bright colors.
Bruh let's talk about your PlayStation tv. Where'd you get that from
So you can watch VHS tapes in HD?
It wont look good since vhs arent made for flatscreen and HD. use a HD VCR and HD vhs to get hd video,.
Nice one ! i've got the DMR-ES35V (no HDMI) but the VHS output signal is perfect, no TBC needed for digitizing to pc, component outputs also the VHS ..with a BlackMagic Design Intensity Shuttle you can make perfect captures !
why doesn`t it need TBC ?
@@mjlwm23 The DMR-ES35V (PAL version) has already made the signal stable, > "VHS Fresh" feature, which works better then the TBC claimed feature of JVC
Thank you for stating the component works with the VHS side, been on the hunt for a combo player exactly like this!
@@Zildj yeah, works perfect, converting component to SDI or HDMI works best, but do use a good prosumer converter, not cheap China stuff, the converter should be able to convert 625i50 or 525i60, capture or recorder should do also that resolution, using a pc/laptop with capture device is problematic these days with recent hardware and OS.
You can use a cheap converter to HDMI to only watch on a tv with HDMI input though...
Can I record VHS onto an SD card or DVD?
not to SD, unprotected VHS can be copied to dvd
how to go from vhs to dvd to preserve since dvd scratch@@xavierzander4201
Hi, I'm trying to transfer about 80 VHS, and compact VHS family video tapes to SD Card, Flash Drive, or DVD? I bought a few SD Card storage cases and some SD Cards because I thought the were "permanent" , but then I found out that SD cards last maybe 5 yrs, Flash Drives maybe 10 yrs. Trying to find out which would be the most permanent way, without putting on the computer, internet or social media?
Also I cant seem to find your converter anywhere. Do you still have yours , and if you do, are you willing to sell it? :-) Thanks, Chuck
Effectively, digital storage in general is as "permanent" as one can really get, as long as- & this is the _biggest_ key factor in their overall longevity- the physical* containers are very well cared-for, for as long as one plans to save them.
The trickiest issues with storing on digital cards ("flash drives" tend to be the same but just with bigger / somewhat "safer" physical housing) is the ability to get lost or otherwise damaged. So if you plan to have all your digital storage kept secure in a single lockbox for safekeeping, it should last many years & decades down the line. You can always make extra copies for more frequent viewings too, ie designate one box for "storage only" & another one for family accessing / viewing anytime. ☆
(*Digital storage in virtual containers (like "clouds") is similarly "permanent", as long as it's "paid for" or otherwise supported, but can be even more difficult to acquire, especially with any "guarantee" that the supplier will stick around indefinitely, yet it is still viable as another option of keeping one's memories backed up; currently many are using services like Google & Amazon)
Whatever method of backups you go with, it'd likely be most wise to expect to make newer backups of "everything so far" every 10-20 years or so & also maybe have "backups of backups" of your most valued ones just in case, to be on the safe side, stored in different locations.. at least that's what I'd do, hehe. ☆
Thank you so much for your reply, I appreciate it!
@@chuckparkinson8309 - I kept editing my cmt for clarity, hope it makes more sense now, & glad it was useful xD
Upload them to Cloud storage. Google Drive, Microsoft Onedrive, Dropbox, ..
Store them on multiple formats in multiple physical places, that is the safest way
I have a DVD player set up my rook tv
This is also a Super Quasi-Play Back player - so you don't actually need to use the input for playing S-VHS tapes, just saying.📼

"vcr players" 😂 also, how do i go from dvd to vhs cuz I wanna preserve my dvd content
An S-VHS player with S-Video with S-Video to HDMI converter will look better. Your Panasonic player has outdated and subpar analog to digital conversion.
Hi, is that definitely the case? Can you explain? I'm looking at getting one of these vs getting a normal vcr into a retrotink5x upscaler.
Will the audio also go through a A/D converter (when only playing vhs) on these vhs+dvd devices?
not really, i know from my Panasonic DMR-ES35V it outputs a clean TBC like signal from VHS to to capture to pc.
You cannot upscale a vhs video to 1920x1080 - you don't have that much information in the video to do so - you can stretch the video to match 1920x1080 size but in order to uplscale you need video information ( pixels ) that can draw the missing info - you can use AI to do so , but that is it , you can check it by youself - by zooming into a video and then you'll see the video getting distorted - this is because there are lots of video miss info in that particular frame
We love it when VCRs make the video quality worse :)
please gift to me this dvd/vhs vcr
Lol
VHS on a modern HDTV....Trash!! 🗑️👎
Best player for VHS? Are u crazy? DVDs and Blu-rays are far better then tapes! DVDs have better picture and sound quality and plus DVD vs VHS DVDs have better picture quality DVDs are the best and VHS sucks DVDs > VHS tapes always and forever
You know DVDs and Blu-rays are better then VHS?
DVDs > VHS tapes always and forever VHS is dead it's 2023 not the 80s 90s! It's DVD
name fits...
we're talking VHS here…. not DVD or BluRay, read on...
No they arent. Dvd and blu ray get scratched
Also you need to work on what you say you said it twice. HD VHS is better than yours
vhs arent dead
