the magnavox ZV427MG9 vhs to disc dub recording can not
be paused. you can not pause and start dub recording in this
mode. you must let it run start to finish . It also states this
in the manual which disspointing....
For this type of recorder it should be able
to do just that, pause while dub recording whs to disc, but it
doesn't.....

To pause the camera in the middle of filming, fully press the shutter at the top of the camera to the right, the recording will be paused. (i.e the shutter that you pressed while the camera is in recording mode, that enables recording while pressed fully. You press it, it will pause and when you press again, it starts recording). This is possible because the camera is already in recording mode.

You're right, you can't pause it; at least not that I can find. However, the "stop" kind of acts like a pause, because ... if you stop recording and then start it up again, even though it records as two different videos, you can easily add them together in "edit"mode, which is basically the same thing as pausing.

get a new one

Connect with RCA cable to RCA jacks\plugs::
output [player] audio to INPUT [recorder]
OUTPUT [player] Video to INPUT [recorder]
*************************************************
Place blank tape in RECORDER, Tape that you want to record from into PLAYER.Press Record [recorder machine], wait one second, press PAUSE.( thats to give record tape "breathing" space.) Set up your player tape to start playing. When you know what you want to record, press PAUSE again to begining recording. Press PAUSE after the recorded section to install 2nd tape, etc. etc.
NOTE:: some VCRs use PAUSE 2nd time to release and continue recording, while some machines you must press RECORD button again to release PAUSE. you must expirement before begining your project.

As far as I can tell, and yes the documentation is skimpy, when you press the 'record/play' button the video recording pauses. Make sure you press the video icon button, not the 'record/play' button to get it started again. If you press the 'record/play' button, it goes into a 'play back' mode.

Hope this helps...
