hi, am trying to back up a vhs casset of my friends to a dvd, when i try to record it from vhs to the pc using the Ati x800 xt all in wonder , it shows that the casset has protection on it, i have tried using an old - ati macrovision remover - but still didnt work, anyone know any current software to use, thanks
There is No Current ATI Macrovsison Patch so if you one you Tried didn"t work then you are Out of Luck.... The only way for you to remove the macrovision copy protection is for you to Buy a Video stabilizer which will remove the macrovision From the Video signal..... This is a Good One: http://www.facetvideo.com/xcart/customer/product.php?productid=83&cat=0&page=1 Good luck
The best way is to buy a full frame TBC. Not only will they improve the signal it will also remove Macrovision but they are around $200.
Removing the Macrovision component of video tapes, can be done with a plain TBC (it doesn't necessarily need the frame synchronizer component)or a good PCI based real-time MPEG-2 encoder card. Good luck
For the Price of a TBC you could Buy a a "Canopus ADVC-100/110" which has a Built in TBC and can disable Macrovision .... Pluss if you Buy a TBC you still need a Capture device to get the Video on your PC..
