hi i have these video tapes that i can easly copy onto plank video tapes.i recently bought a panasonice dvd recorder player.ive been able to copy most of these video tapes to dvd but there r a few video tapes the same video tapes i copied to video wont copy to dvd with this new panasonic unit.is there anyway i can get these video tapes copied to dvd?thanks coonsanders
I use an old Optex 'Video Enhancer' between the VCR and the Panasonic. This removes 'Macrovision'. If the recorder refuses to copy the tape, this is probably why. These 'enhancers' are still available http://www.dimax.com.ua/common/default.shtml or ask someone who copied tapes fifteen years ago if they still have their unit.
You may want to try the ATX-500 This will do it, but the process is long and tedious and at $120 it May not be worth it. http://www.world-import.com/atx-500.htm
