I have a Go-Video dual deck unit (Model # 4060). I've used
this unit to copy from dvd successfully as an experiment, but through the
composite video output.This particular Go-video deck does
not have S-video. All Go-video decks have circuitry that
defeats Macrovision (actually they copy the macrovision onto the copy you make). I believe they finally came out with an S-VHS deck a year or so ago. An easier route would be to purschase a Sima "Copymaster" unit ($49 at Best Buy)
which has defeated the dvd macrovision for me. I use the copymaster with an Panasonic 7350 medical/industrial S-VHS VCR (415 lines of res) to copy an occasional dvd (very occasional). The picture is almost indistinguishable from an non-anamorphic-enhanced dvd's picture. Try the copymaster.
