Yeah, but what if the soundcard has not been programmed to send the data
correctly, it could just be sending NULLs to the unit, which it then
defaults to UNLIMITED, this could explain why the track index marks are not
sent either

I think the professional machines (Denon I believe) cost about a grand or more.

Larry,
I believe you are correct, because this problem just bit me in the butt. I
made original recordings to MD with microphones, and when I try to transfer
them to the computer using a Hoontech soundcard with Yamaha drivers (which
implement SCMS) it will not copy.

No. An S/PDIF signal has SCMS bits in it. Whatever generates the signal
generates those bits. The recorder decides what to do about them.

That wasn't the rule. Yes, recording will always set the SCMS bits, but it
won't necessarily set them

Here's a weird one. I make hard disk recordings off the radio (using
LOOPREC) and then digital copy tracks to my MZ-R55 using the optical lead.
A digital recording I's sure, at least 'DIGITAL' appears in the window in
the MD during the copy.
I'm then able to take that disk to my other MD deck

It could. Computer peripherals are not covered by SCMS (likewise the
immunity from suit for non-commercial copying under the AHRA does not extend

They aren't cover under the law.
