No Security Features ?

[Shenlon]

I have the Pioner DV-333 and it is a fine player but when i connect it through my s video in to even watch a movie a thick white line comes across the movie , now some seem to think this is because of some securitu function with the player , is there any players who dont have this sort of security crap ? that will also support Cd-Rs/VCDs ?

Watch it on what? TV or computer screen? Using TV-Video input?

No, this isn't a new security "feature", but is probably a configuration issue with your S-Video input. Try using the composite inputs to see if this makes any difference.

you will have to excuse me , i am of course a newbie to all of this

but the s video in is configured properly , but reading my manual i believe what is happening is something is causeing the Macro-Vision security function to activate , now is there a way around the Macro-Vision or a certain way of disabling it ?

Macrovision doesn't look like what you describe. And you still haven't told us what exactly you are trying to do.
