1-normally connect from dvdplayer to your tv

This has never worked for me,all dvd players have macrovision check
"DVD Hacks"for your player.Go to google,yahoo,etc and search for"video stabilizers",I have never seen them in any brick&mortar store.

I have a VHS VCR connected this way, via the TV. This method will never work on a macrovision protected DVD movie. However, not all DVD's have macrovision protection in the disk. There are some movies and musicvideos that I can record into a VHS tape.

My computer is not effected by macrovision either. I can also record a DVD into my computer as a digital video such as MPEG2 or DivX. You can also rip a DVD into a blank video CD, see this web site for info. Not all that bad.

On macrovision protected disks, the only way the record them into a video tape is to use an old BETA or Video 8 VCR. I have done this without a problem as macrovision only applies to recent VHS VCR's.

Anyway, I don't record very many. I usually hire a DVD, then if good enough, record into an old VCR. All goes well.
