I`m afraid the hack doesn`t disable Macrovision on the 511, only on the 709 and earlier models. On the 511, the hack is for multi-region playback *only*.

Sorry :-(

It actually says:

"On various Samsung models this hack will also disable Macrovision"

It doesn`t say it removes Macrovision on ALL models listed.

All is not lost, though - you could always buy an external Macrovision remover if you want to back up your DVDs to tape.

Actually, it the hack does disable macrovision howver, the video output on the DVD MUST be set to Video.

Not RGB
Not S-Video.

try it to test it etc etc .
