Set the macrovision to 1 on the DVD-A980 model to disable macrovision.
With the later DVD-A980 `S` models, the macrovision logic is reversed. i.e. set it to O to disable. One problem you might encounter with the later`S` type is that it likes to revert to macrovision enabled each time you go into standby. (So I hear)
This will only be of annoyance to you if you watch via a VCR or intend to do a great deal of pirating!
The OP PROH is there to enable you skip the FBI warnings
Region can be selected for auto-region (13) or any specific region for RCE discs. Reliability?: Most people I know of get lucky the second time around.
