I've read some of the posts here or at least tried to but they're so
very technical that they go right over my head. But I need help from
somewhere so here goes.

I recently bought a GoVideo 3840 (VHS to DVD or DVD to VHS). I had
dubbed 2 movies (from tape to dvd) but was unable to check the end of
them bec I didn't know how. Then I fell into a lengthy trade with a gal
from Canada for Marcus Welby episodes + have done 12 eps for her on 6
discs, also unable to check the endings. Tonight I was doing a 2-hr
C/mas movie for someone that I had taped right off my tv a few years
ago. I was checking it periodically + happened to hit it just as the
ending credits were starting. The damn thing shut off before the
credits barely got started + then told me the disc was full at 1:58:35.
When I started the disc, it told me there was 2:11 hrs on it. That's a
discrepincy of almost 12 1/2 minutes! This is intolerable! I can't have
a machine that keeps cutting off ending credits. I'll bet every episode
of the Welbys that I sent to Canada has the endings cut off. Can anyone
advise me on this problem w/o telling me to go buy something different?
BTW, I'm on a Webtv, not a computer. Hope someone can give me a "fix"
for this problem (if there is one) in layman's terms.
