HBO copy protects it shows.


I tried to copy HBO Boxing to DVD and got a note saying the broadcast was copy protected. Anyway to get around this?

You may be able to copy off of the analog output of your cable/satellite box or off of the analog output of the TV.
Which is why I, and this my opinion, find all the new digital formats boring. I had a blast with my VCRs copying whatever I wanted to. It made video fun. I can't even name a current heavyweight boxer today (thank goodness I was around for free Muhammad Ali). We are paying big money to watch cable TV and it is 50% commercials! Everything today has to do with wrenching the last dollar from people. Sorry, I felt like ranting. I should be happy. I'm not buying thousand dollar VCRs any longer......I've owned several......but only one DVD player.....I wonder why :)
What about PVR? TIVO? Apple TV? Does any one know if if you can rip a DVD from one of those?

Peace
