place betamx on table.  place vhs on table.  connect betamax outputs to vhs 
inputs.  place beta tape in betamax (after turning it on, of course).  ditto 
for the vhs.  put vhs in rec/pause mode, beta in play/pause.  hit pause 
simultaneaously on both units.  hit stop on both units when all is done.

that is all.   but why bother ruining a perfectly good video by transferring 
it to vhs??
