The conversion of VHS tapes to Blu-ray has been completed, so this item is no longer needed. In preparation for listing, I briefly tested both the DVD and VHS players. The video and audio were both working without any problems. However, this is a simple check, and the product is old, so there is a possibility of malfunction. I have confirmed the power, play, and fast-forward functions of the remote control, but I have not checked all functions. VHS to DVD copying is not possible. A hard drive is not included. The item includes the main unit, remote control, and video/audio cables only. The original box is not available, so the item will be wrapped in bubble wrap and shipped in a suitable cardboard box.
