  1. Re:Does anybody out there know ... on Macrovision Wants Old DRM to Work Forever · · Score: 0

    VCRs had a problem recording Macrovision because of the auto gain circuitry on the VCRs inputs. The Macrovision signal sends the video out of NTSC spec, short of where it is not visible, but the VCR turns down the gain far enough to ruin the image. Macrovision didn't effect really old VCRs that don't have auto gain.
