i use a jvc video and hook it up to my pc via a videomate pvr/fm capture card. Whenever i try to capture the film onto the pc the screen goes white. I think it might be protection on the video (which i own and want to make a copy of for my grandson). Is there any software out there that can remove this protection (possibly macrovision)? I tried AnyDVD but this didn't seem to remove it. Many thanks.

i have a very old vhs player that ive kept pristine through the years that seems to ignore all copy protections on protected vhs tapes , so try garage saleing or ask freinds and family if you could borrow there old vhs player as im sure this should solve your problem bud .

i have had no problems at all useing the dvd xpress capture box to usb , ive converted many of our vhs tapes without error , its a painfully slow process so make sure your preparied mentally , otherwise your likely to go insane !

another way would be to hook your vhs player to your tv , then take a svideo wire or a set of rca jacks and go from the out on the tv to your capture card on your pc , im not sure if tv's have a out slot though , but well worth a look as this should help you around your problems .

another idea would be to use your old vhs cam corder and hook directly up tp your pc , as im sure they never added that macrovision crap to the cam corders ,at least to some of them anyway .

you know you could just let the movie play on your big screen and position your minidv camcorder just so and then record a none protected copy lmao , it works but as you well know the quality isnt going to be the greatest .

im sure there is a peice of software that will help you around your problem but as to date the only fix ive found was buying a filter or another capture card that is manafactured to let macrovision flow through .

You will need a Video Stabilizer box connected in the video line between the VHS unit and your capture card. There is no Software package available to eliminate MacroVision.
Stabilizers sell for about $25 at most electronic stores.
