Copy Protection

This unit supports Macrovision copy protection.

On DVD discs that include a copy protection code, if the contents of the DVD disc are copied using a VCR, the copy protection code prevents the videotape copy from playing normally.

U.S. Patent Nos. 4,631,603; 4,819,098; 4,907,093; 5,315,448; and 6,516,132.

This product incorporates copyright protection technology that is protected by U.S. patents and other intellectual property rights. Use of this copyright protection technology must be authorised by Macrovision, and is intended for home and other limited viewing uses only unless otherwise authorised by Macrovision. Reverse engineering or disassembly is prohibited.

When attempting to record copy protected material on a VCR or other recording device, the copy protection will activate and the protected material will not be recorded correctly. In addition, attempting to display copy protected material on a monitor connected via a VCR, whether for the purpose of viewing or not, will cause an inferior quality picture to be displayed. This is not a fault of the equipment. Please view copy protected material by connecting the product directly to the monitor.

Dolby Digital Recording

“Dolby® Digital Recording enables consumers to record high-quality video with stereo sound on recordable DVD discs. The technology, when utilized instead of PCM recording, also saves recordable disc space, allowing for higher video resolution or extended recording time on each DVD. DVDs created using Dolby Digital Recording will play back on all DVD-Video players.”

Note: This is true when the players are compatible with actual recordable DVD discs.
