Hey,
I have connected our DVD player up sose to record dvds. Now When I record R2 I can pley them back no probs, however when it comes to R1 it plays back but the picture jumps around.
My player has had Macrovision disabled, so I think that its the VCR that isn`t NTSC playback compatable, even though it is relativly new. I tried it on alll of the other VCRs that I have and still no joy. Is there any way of getting around this. without buying another VCR?

Can you set your DVD player to output PAL ? It sounds as if it`s attempting to record NTSC.

Yes the DVD has already been switched to Pal output.

For recording R1 to VHS you not only need Macrovision switched off but you need the DVD player to output to PAL50 instead of the PAL60. Not all DVD players have PAL50 and PAL60 output. Most have only PAL60 output.With R2 disks it will work fine with PAL60.
