Calling all Panasonic DMR-50 Owners!!! - Advice Required
I have an E-50 and have recently purchased a macrovision disable box! Its made by Holden - its call a videomax.
It seems to work okay, however there is still a shimmering line at the bottom of the screen! If you disconnect the box, you get no picture at all, so the box is working!
However, my friend recently purchased an E-50 and if you connect to his without a macrovision box you get a perfect picture, bet when you press record, it says you are not allowed to copt this product!
Why is it that when you connect to mine, you dont get any picture and yet on his you do? You obviously still cant record, but when you connect the Macrovision box to his, he doesnt get that shimmer at the bottom of the screen!
Is it the macro box? If so, any suggestions on another? Poss the sonel one!

The old style Macro disable boxes are fairly primitive nowadays and I used to get the bottom of the screen problem 10 years ago.
I would cut your losses and get something like a KT Vision Smart Scart.They`re about £40,but give perfect pictures,and also disable CGMS to allow dvd-dvd copies,which your Macro box probably will not.
