I have a Tivo and a Sony DVD recorder but I cannot copy any movies due to the copyright protection. Is there a way to get around this? If not, how would I go about running it through my laptop in order to be able to copy the movies to dvd?
to computer : need a tv capture card unfortunately this is a pain in but considering on how u want to burn it to ie vcd dvd etc etc transcoding can be slow but if u want to burn to u dvd player there is an item u can buy which i use for some programs it takes macrovision off allowing u to burn u just connect video cable into it then out into the dvd burner works great gl
just wondering is that not stealing? i know you can store them on your tivo hard drive, so i don't know you might have to ask a moderator.
half the information on this site tells you how to copy restricted material think u in the wrong site if don't like the info
@ Ohmkarah wow... now theres a first... sony actually sucks for you.. i bought a cheap standalone emerson dvd recorder and it records everything... total damage $139 us dollars... you may want to drop that sony off somewhere... now my Sony DRU 810A (dvd burner in my pc) it will burn anything with help of a few programs... like DVD Shrink, DVD Decryptor, AnyDVD, just to name a few... but you kind of lost me... are you trying to take the material from tivo to pc? or from tivo to a standalone dvd recorder? like for your television? because i would suggest not using the tivo... record directly from the cable to the standalone... if that is the case... and if not... if your trying to do it from your pc... try DVD Shrink ... its my personal favorite because it gives you a preview of what its encoding... thats good if your dvd's that you backing up are in rough shape you can tell if its gonna be glitchy.. but i hear alot of people promoting the other software just as much so i guess its all a case of personal prefference
