HELP! I want to record R1 to VHS? How? Which player?

Johnny Utah (Elite) posted this on Monday, 28th May 2001, 19:51

I want to buy a new video recorder. I`ve heard that some automatically disable macrovision. (I have a Wharfedale 750 player by the way.) Which ones don`t recognize Macrovision?

Can I record R1 discs? I know that VHS players are NTSC compatible for playback, but what about recording R1?

Can anyone help.

P.S
My folks have an ancient VHS player, a Hinari VXL5. Does anyone know if it recognizes macrovision? And does it matter if it doesn`t have a SCART?

Kinda defeats the object if you ask me.

One never knows when one`s DVD player might, ahem, break down...;-)
