In Reply to: VCR with DVD pass through? posted by SSkirch on March 01, 2001 at 23:12:12:
Macrovision operates sucessfully due to the "advanced" circuitry of modern VCRs. If you get an "old" VCR from the '80s, you will probably find that Macrovision doesn't work like it's suppose to on most of these VCRs. As to the new VCRs that pass the signal while not recording, I don't know of any off hand. Why are you going through a VCR? RF connector for the TV's input? Get a converter from Parts Express to RF the DVD players RCA outputs. Only one set of RCA inputs on the TV? Get an RCA switch box. Or, upgrade the TV.
Follow Ups:
I tried doing a pass-through from my DVD to TV on a circa-1980 RCA VCR. What I experienced was a periodic darkening and brightening of the picture. Not really a degradation or noise, as Macrovision is supposed to do, but the periodic effect must have come from the circuitry in the VCR being slightly out of sync with the DVD signal in some way.
