    Is there an app already existing where I can pop in a DVD and know instantly whether it's Macrovision-protected or not?

    I think decrypter will report the MV bits if it sees them. (maybe)
    ...and the article is slightly incorrect. False syncs do not confuse the AGC.
    Fasle syncs confuse the VCR head rotation sync (tearing). The AGC gets confused by some extra high video pulses they put in. (light/dark effect)

    I either don't know what I'm looking for, or DVDDecrypter doesn't report such information. Any other help?
