Which macrovision lead?

I have heard about theses macrovision leads for backing up your (my) DVDS. My mate bought one called "Macrovision Disabler". It is a box which you plug a scaft into and out of. But every 15 mins if flashes black & white for a second. Does the one from SONEL do this or is it 100% ok. Many thanks. Sam

i think its cheaper to get a budget dvd player where you can enter a hack to switch off macrovision. e.g. some cyberhome dvd players.

I`ve used the Sonel gizmo to copy commercial VHS tapes to DVD, for home consumption naturally. No problems at all, particularly when powering up the lead with a few volts. Can`t speak for DVD to DVD however.

The leads from Sonel and KT Vision both work well and cost £20-£30.They enable vhs and dvd copying aswell as allowing recording of Sky Box Office.
Check out www.sonel(ktvision).com-whichever you want.
This is one of the few web sites that even allow discussion of these leads.Gestapo type rules by the twat moderators on the dvd forums means if you show a link or even mention the name you would be banned.
