Ok, I had no clue where to post this, so I posted it here. If this is the wrong place I'm sorry.
I have a DVD player and a VCR Player. Now, I want some of my Anime from my DVD's on Vhs, I have the Dvd hooked into a MODULATOR(typo?) and I have my Vcr hooked up threw the same MODULATOR, now I turn on my DVD player and hit O(record) on my VHS, and all it tape's is BLUE SCREEN.
It's on channel 3, it acaully turned on. So, how can I fix this? And yes, Macrovision is turned off, I burnt the cd that had you use the 20mbText and the other file, and it worked just fine. I turned Mvision off, and shut power off and then turned back on after a few mins.
How can I fix this? Cuz I know of several people that tape DVD's to VHS's(I'm talking about Anime dvds, btw). And yes, this is probably illegal, I know. I'm sorry if this offends anyone.

I think the problem is the modulator, it may not be able to handle routing the signal the way you are trying to do.
Try just playing the DVD through the composite outputs of the DVD player and connect it to the composite inputs of the VCR and bypass the modulator altogether.
I don't think its macrovision since you said its turned off and you are getting just a blue screen instead of distortion like you would get from macrovision. -
Well, I had a blue screen even before I turned off the MacroVision. But see, my Vcr is rather old(around 13 years old) and when I hook my dvd player up threw the back of it, the screen change's color's and it's goes dark to light. It's just plain messed up when I hook my dvd player through the inputs on my Vcr. I'm getting a new vcr soon, so maybe that will help.
Is there anything else I could do? Since, it was always taping blue screen, b4 I turned Mvision off. -
if the screen goes dark to light when hooking directly through then more then likely macrovision isn't shut off.
the dark to light effect is one of the protection schemes

I wasn't aware you could turn off the macrovision in the first place, but hey how do you do it? LOL.

I have the Daewoo-3000N model, I had to download 2 files and burn them to a cd-r, and stick that into my Dvd player and it went from there. On your left hand side, there is a bar with How To/What Is/Other...goto Other, then DVD HACKS, and find your dvd player model, and see what it say's

Well, since Mvision is off on mine, I'll hook it up threw my vcr again and see if it does that color thingy. And I hope it doesn't..cuz I want to watch some Anime on Vhs
