I have an ILO (wal-mart brand) DVD recorder which records on DVD just like a VCR.
Several days ago I recorded Casablanca from TCM to a DVD and when I finalized the disc last night for play in other DVD players (which has never failed me yet, though this recorder is fairly new) I was mystyfied as to why it would not play (in the SAME machine, if any player will play it it should be the one that created it).

I put it into my computer and it would appear that AnyDVD has found protections on the DVD that I created myself! Makes me wonder if AMC has somehow placed those broadcast flags into their broadcasts that my ILO has intercepted and created protections. This is interesting, I make a homemade, personal recording and it comes out protected and unplayable. This is DRM at its worst. AnyDVD information below.

PS
The Disk does play in my computer with AnyDVD enabled OR disabled, however since I do not have a second set top DVD player other than the recorder/combo I can not say for sure if it would play in another set top DVD player. Just looking at the AnyDVD report tells the story however.

Now that's something that is very interesting. I always thought that anything on TV that you recorded was protected under Fair Rights.
