Does anyone know of a way to defeat the macrovision encoder that comes with my Toshiba SD100E.

Either a hardware add on or a software option?

Thanks,

They do a thing called a video copy enhancer, and it is fantastic, it has a sharpness controll and a colour saturation controll, and it defeats the macrovison of video to video as well.

Also have a look at www.sonel.com who sell the Mac Buster (a modified scart lead which needs a power supply) for £30 odd including PSU.

I bought one but have since sold it on to a mate - it really was for him anyway.

Tried it out on my wifes Wharfedale 750s which worked except there seemed to be a slight stuttering - changing output type did not help.

But on my mate`s Pansonic A160 it worked perfectly hence his purchase.

Bear in mind that if you want to record R1 titles then you will need a VCR capable of RECORDING in NTSC. One such player is Thomson 6950U sells for £99 plus VAT in Makro.
