MACROVISION VHS TO DIGITAL FILE PRO

I have read some of the previous threads on this site where some people were experiencing the same problem of still getting the Macrovision message even though the unit appeared to be operating properly.

MACROVISION VHS TO DIGITAL FILE PRO

Once we unhooked the antenna hook-up and only had the Go.Video and RCA inter-connected with the DVD Red Pro (and audio cables), the problem was solved and it worked as advertised. The macrovision signal was also being sent along that hook-up, which was preventing the taping. He had the DVD Red Pro hooked up correctly, but besides that input, he also had the antenna hook up that ran from the GO.Video out to the RCA antenna in (for satellite hook-up). Well yesterday I went over to check out the hook up and found the problem. So I got nervous thinking he had just been swindled. The box would indicate the macrovision was being stopped, by the RCA player kept telling him that he could not record the movies due to the Copyright Protection. For the first couple of days after getting the unit, he was trying to copy some VHS to DVD movies using Go.Video VHS/DVD combo to record to RCA DVD +R recorder/player (DRC8000?). Posted on Monday, Decem19:01 GMTMy brother ordered 2 DVD Red Pro units for Christmas, one for him and one for me, from the dimax website. So, anyone have a favorite or known combination of VCR, stabilizer, and DVD recorder? Will making sure the VCR and DVD recorder are from the same manufacturer help? So I presume that other vendors will be like-minded. 'We are NOT in the business of recommending systems. I have emailed Video Magic to ask if they have a recommendation, but their response was rather hostile and abrubt, leading me to wonder if they have tested their product on anything or if they fear some sort of legal action. What I am proposing is to eliminate the errors resulting from VCR-to-stabilizer-to-DVD compatibility issues. Remember: there are other factors (tape condition, signal strength, cables, etc.) that can affect outcome.

If you had to choose one VCR one stabilizer and one DVD recorder together, which brands and models would you choose to result in the most consistent performance? I am interested in the broadest functionality (at least NTSC/PAL detection and clean pass-though of the signal by the stabilizer.cleaned of the macrovision and what-all copyright protection). > Europe.I may not be able to buy it with confidence.) r_en/index.htm Video ClearZone (just found this one, it's from > Go to their product section and look at the Ultra - ( ) This seems more solid (at least to me). > This looks like someone's garage invention, but maybe a good one? England, To contribute to our deliberations, I am posting the websites for the products most mentioned (and what I seem to hit over and over again when searching on the internet).

You get what you pay for, (ie., the more expensive stabilizers work better than the cheaper ones ($70.00+ vs. AC powered stabilizers better than battery-powered.ДЈ. S-Video connections are better than composite (and one should use the best connectors).Дў. What I've learned, so far, from your posts:ДЎ. I want to build my system from the ground up, using the most appropriate stabilizer as the base unit and THEN selecting the VCR and DVD recorder components that best suits the stabilizer.to get consistent results (hopefully). Have been skulking for a couple of weeks and want to ask a question regarding VHS to DVD copying with video stabilzers (home use, of course). Posted on Friday, J22:24 GMTHi, folks - New here.
