Copying video tapes to DVD

Nortonian · 01-06-2006, 15:03

I have a collection of videos which I want to transfer onto DVD's. I have managed to do some of them but others seem to have a copywright on them which prevents any transfer.

Where is the copywright on the tape, and is there anyway I can get round it so I can watch my favorites on DVD in my caravan?

You need a special cable which can bypass this - we're not allowed to saction them on this forum for obvious reasons - try a quick Google on anti macrovision cable.

If you have a newish computer you might have a s-video cable that you can record from video players.
