Hi, just trying out a new VM install, got a Samsung 2100C box, with VOD my PVR says in red something like copy prohibited and my old SVHS VCR looses syncs, goes blank and then the brightness/contrast goes all screwy, looks like some internal circuitry "messing" with the syncs and signal waveforms etc, can I get a "mod" or will a sync/timebase corrector "sort" this mess out? The output is from a standard SCART into both other units so just analog thx duncan

something to do with vod being macrovision i think im sure someone can help a little more on this subject.

as above definatly macrovision which can be disabled with a scart or something but they tend to cost more than they are worth and everything on vod could be downloaded anyway
