Does anyone know how to record Movies of Sky Boxoffice? I heard there was a external Mod that connected to your VCR to allow you to do this. Anyone got any info?

I think they are Macrovision encoded, so you`d need something to filter that out I guess. Search on this forum for Macrovision and it should turn up a few things.

I heard (somewhere) that if you run your Digibox into your VCR, then that VCR into a second VCR, you can record fine on the second VCR. Of course, I haven`t tried it but if it works it should also work for DVD.

Doubt that would work, Macrovision tends to screw up your picture even if you just pipe it through your VCR to your telly. Thats a major legitimate reason why some people want to disable it on their player, since they only have one SCART socket on their TV they can only route it through their VCR.
