DVDR70 and Macrovision/CGMS Copyright protection questions!

[WaxDeo]

Hi!

I want to make backups of my DVD's. I have a Philips DVDR70 and a Philips DVD722! When i try to copy from DVD (722) to DVD (DVDR70) via scart or any other cable i get a protection message! I have to mention that it is legal to make backups of your own DVD's where i live! (Sweden)
What can i do to get around this? Use a Macrovision Killer that "kills" the Macrovision and CGMS (Copy Generation Management System) protection? I don't want to copy, convert and burn on PC - to much to do! I just want it easy!

As i said before, it's legal to do backup on your own (bought) movies in Sweden, so several stores sell MVision Killer!
MVision Killer+ (also removes the CGMS - Copy Generation Management System)

MVision Killer+ chip (x2 in the box above - one for in, and one for out)


Is this the solution?

I hear the Sonel Macro Master Pro works pretty well. Do a google search.

However, I'd be curious to know if anyone here has used the Sonel and the results..

Anyone else?

Never mind. I am in the wrong forum.

Yes, in order to record commercial DVDs to your standalone DVD recorder, you need to disable both Macrovision and CGMS-A, so you need the IMVision Killer+ model to achieve that. You only need to disable Macrovision if recording to a VCR or just pass through the signal to TV.
