I am planning to buy a stand alone DVD recorder. I wonder that can a stand alone DVD recorder record a VHS tape that have Macro-Vision. The DVD recorder to be Lite-on 5005 or 5045. Thanks You.
There is macrovision disabled firmware available for the Liteon LVW-5045 here http://ccgi.mgillespie.plus.com/liteon/smf/index.php?board=2.0 Also, SVP are selling the Liteon 5006, 5025 and 5045 here http://www.blankdiscshop.co.uk/acatalog/dvdrecord.html
Most any LiteOn or LiteOn manufactured (ILO R04 and HD04)recorder can be hacked to disable Macrovision and enable you to record your VHS tapes.
