Thanks Bastien for the response
I will go back to the source if I can while at the same time try a broadcast
quality deck, which my brother has.
At the same time will it be a fair assumption that there might some third
party software that might get around the problem???

That is "Serial Copy Management System", a code wich prevent copy from
commercially distributed audio and video material.
I remember that some old edition of Matrox video capture tool did not comply
to it, so you can capture SCMS protected material. I don't know if this is a
hardware or software implemented protection.

No workaround it seems. Maybe that Broadcast VHS decks can "strip" the SCMS
code as pro Digital Audio deck can? If not, you will have to "go to the
source".
