I don't know about Facet, but they might well be one of several companies that were hounded out of existence by MV, which has also killed off some great software. However, the Facet products and others in this category regularly turn up on eBay.

I don't know about the combo device you asked about in the other thread (switch), but if you do some reading here you'll find that the two most discussed external TBCs are the Datavideo 1000 (quite expensive now), and the AVT-8710. Their effectiveness against anti-copy is a matter of some dispute.

Some of us would be curious to read a detailed review of the Grex with just what it can or can't do, but I think it may be manufactured in your country (?), so impartiality could be an issue. Some have described it as being a cheaper knock-off of the Zorilla unit.

I know Grex is manufactured here - probably that's why they still exists.
As far as I know their latest Grex models has Level II and Level III remover that is a big step forward compared to others. I'm not sure although how important is it and how one can check it.

But I mostly wanted to check what is going on wiht Facet Video. Situation with Facet is very interesting. I know Sima was sued by Macrovision but newer hear about Facet. Even if it were the case they could publish some information about. Instead they have simply disapiared. No web no phones. I purchased their product in USA and as far as I know they were US company.
Well let's see probably someone will put some light on it.
