I use AnyDVD which defeats copy protection for legitimate backups. I
wonder if it would take care of the Macrovision stuff if he used a
capture card equipped PC and VCR.

You can have it if I can find it. It usually works on older VHS stuff but not
all the new ones (slightly different frequency) I have a really good stabilizer
now with color adjustment, jitter control, etc. That one cost a pretty penny
though.

Subject: Re: [H] VCR to DVD
A friend gave me a Tape-to-DVD machine a couple years ago.
An older Go.Video model. (I think they closed down.)
The Macrovision on the tapes pervents them from being copied.
YMMV... (Good luck.)
Since I had a Video camera since 1981,
I had lots of other uses for it, <grin>...

Been reading online about copying to DVD, seems I need some hardware.
Any recommendations? Anyone have something in the back of the closet to
recycle? Gladly pay any reasonable amount + shipping.
There's a hugh pile of tapes, so something I can use with little input
from me would be preferred.
