I tried to record a tv movie to a dvd-r, the recorder goes into record mode and appears to record but, there seems to be no picture when i try to play it back. I believe all the connections are correct. It will play a dvd movie, and the dvd menus appear on the tv screen. The only thing i havent looked at is the coaxle for the cable tv runs through a vcr; would this contribute to my issue??? help please.

First make sure your Panasonic has 16:9 TV mode selected within its menu. Then try chainging the picture size on your TV. You didn't say what model TV you have. On my Samsung you would press the menu key then select picture, scroll down and select picture size. From hear you can select 16:9, wide zoom, zoom, 4:3. Try looking for picture size and selecting 16:9 on your TV.
Make sure the materials you're trying to record onto the DVD
is not Copyrighted. Try to record a normal TV program onto your
VHS, transfer it to your DVD and then play it. See if that will
work. A VHS movie is usually Copyrighted and Protected by
Macrovision. The picture output can be displayed on a TV set
for viewing but is scrambled black to a DVD Recorder.
If you are trying to record a store bought vhs movie to dvd, there is a copy guard that is imprinted on the tape making it impossible to transfer the movie to disc effectively, on top that there probably a built in copy guard restriction in the machine making it even more difficult.
hook the video output from vcr to dvd input at rear, then hook output from dvd to tv input. note; you can not record protected vcr movies you can only record tv shows from sattelite to vcr or dvd recorder. its best to record straight from sattelite to dvd recorder for picture clarity.

Your camcorder has a wide format recording mode that lets you make recordings compatible with the 16x9 format. When 16x9 is activated, the camcorder records black bars at the top and bottom of the picture to produce the wide-screen (movie) effect. This is also known as "letterbox" recording.
Do not use this mode unless you have a compatible 16x9 TV. When played on a regular TV, black bars appear on the screen.
If the 16x9 feature is activated on your camcorder and you want to turn it off, press REC/PAUSE to pause recording, and repeatedly press DIGITAL EFFECTS until no digital effects display appears.
