RE: Schneider 855 - Need Macrovision Handset Hack!!!

If I find out anything I will post it here... as for excuses I thought about what needs a commercial engineer might need for removing macrovision but cant reallly think of any..... Unless of course they have technical journals you can send for for electronic engineers, I got one from yamaha once for a keyboard and it was nearly the same as the consumer level manual except it had the full circuit schematic with voltages and chip ID and components etc and also self tests and test modes! so who knows!

Schneider 855 - Need Macrovision Handset Hack!!!

Has anyone got the Schneider 855 Macrovision handset hack?

Its definately in there as looking at the upgrade rom image theres lots of text to support the claim.. And! also I noticed two other functions which enable you to change the "passwords" for the different secret menus! (secret 1 = Region Codes and secret 2 = macrovision)

Has anyone tried to socially engineer this from schneider??? :)

best regards!

RE: Schneider DVD 855 - I got the upgrade CD it works!!!!! :D

Yeah this is great! I upgraded the ROM no problems!! I aint tested a VCD yet! but assuming yours is fine mine will be I guess.. will test one tonight..

Interesting notes are as follows... basic info about the archived file I downloaded... Well I did not have clonecd so I had to use WinImage type program called ISObuster to remove the bank30.rom from the archive. I then just did a standard iso burn with Nero onto a blank CDR.. this appears to have worked fine!

about the bank30.rom... I loaded it into notepad out of interest and found screen printable text refering to secret menu 1 (eg secret 1 code 0 code 1 etc etc ) but also reference to secret 2.. Could this be the macrovision on / off menu?? Well assuming that its going to be the same procedure to access this menu as menu 1 then I think I will be staying up late tonight for a bit of brute forcing! :)

all the best

God bless you LightFast!
