Funai Combination VCR and DVD Recorder (ZV427FX4)

Does it convert from VHS to DVD ?

What type of blank DVD should I use to record from VHS tape? And will this recorded DVD play in any DVD player?

does this play vcr tapes as well as dvds

what kind of external tuner is needed to be able to record tv shows onto the dvd-r discs? I currently have a cable line coming into an older tv set.
