The pioneer dv444 macrovion diabler not working on R1 titles
I tried to back up a copy of a R1 film the other day after recieving my lovely new shiney Pioneer only to realise that the macrovision hadnt been disabled. R2s work fine, but it is the R1s that mess up. I donot mean it is black and white as i set the player to output in pal50 which my video can handle, well it plays thru the video in colour so i am assuming that it does. I have tried my macro buster but to no avail, can anyone help?

If that player could output PAL 50 it would be mentioned here

Ok so i got it wrong it outputs in pal60, no need to rub this fact in by sighting to sites a simple explanation would have done. I believe what you are trying to tell me tho is that because the machine outputs at pal 60 and not 50 I would need a video that reorded ntsc signals even tho it is a compressed signal, or something like that anyway.

Yes you cant record PAL60 and can only record NTSC on a NTSC video recorder and that doesnt mean one with just NTSC playback as many new video`s seem to have

I realise this. I was just confused because my old player which outputted a compressed ntsc pal signal did work, is this the differnence between 50/60?

50 frames per sec / 60 frames per sec
Yes

It`s not possible for the end user to do this other than fitting a chip ... dealers can also do it via firmware upload from PC
