I have recently bought a Phillips dvdr and wanted to copy MY films.I purchased the macro master to assist with macrovision problems but as soon as I touch record I get the message "copy protected" any ideas if I can get round this?

you need a dvd player which disables gmcs protection which is generated when you input a digital source the only way round it is to try and get a decca2110 dansai852 etc ccs is disabled on them a friend tells me you can buy a filter lead for about £115

Look up CGMS - Copy Generation Management System.
This is a further level of anti-copy protection.
