How do I connect my vcr to my dvd recorder?

How to connect VCR to a DVD recorder, problem is with the video input?

I have tried to connect the VCR video output as out and the DVD video intput as in. The screen on the TV is blank and then when I take out the video cable out of the input from the DVD and put it in as DVD output I get a picture. Please someone help cause I want to copy some VHS tapes onto my recordable DVD
Answer:

VCR out---> DVD-R In This brings the VCR signal to the DVD Now you need to see what you are doing, so DVD-R out --> TV In You need to set the DVD-R to the correct input (Line 1, Line 2, etc.) and the TV to the correct input. Always record at the BEST possible setting, otherwise your recordings will look pretty bad when a few years from now you switch to an HDTV.
