| 259442 | 2004-08-08 07:02:00 | hi all, Does anyone know of any DVD players available which allow macrovision to be disabled (without voiding the warranty)? A friend would like to get a DVD player but their TV doesn't have AV inputs so it needs to go through the VCR. We tried a DSE mustek but the newer ones no longer let you disable it. |

| 259443 | 2004-08-08 08:49:00 | there is no such thing as far as i know...... if you look around the web you can get macrovision filters.... I dont think this fourm is the place to put links to such things. |

Yes, there is... the dvd player I got doesn't have macro vision. I didn't disabled it, it was like that when I got it. :) I even know some dvd players that can play Divx mpeg4 as well. |

| 259447 | 2004-08-09 00:14:00 | There is a program (not for external DVD players), BUT for internal DVD players for your PC, which kills macrovision and also plays any region DVD around. No firmware hack required or little program running in the background to disable it. It's not free, but it DOES play ZONE 1 DVD's as soon as you chuck it in the DVD. They say its the world's 1st region free and macrovision free DVD player around. | Spacemannz (808) | ||
| 259448 | 2004-08-09 00:29:00 | DVD Region-Free from dvdidle.com :-) | Chilling_Silence (9) | ||
| 259449 | 2004-08-09 00:37:00 | Nope not what I was thinking this is a standalone program nothing else needed. No programs, no firmware hack. Just the 1 DVD program. Similar to PowerDVD's interface BUT plays any DVD any region you chuck in it. | Spacemannz (808) | ||
| 259450 | 2004-08-09 00:45:00 | IIRC its called DVD X Player or something similar It does the same job as DVD Region-Free + Power DVD, just its an "all-in-one" bundle ;-) |

| 259451 | 2004-08-09 00:48:00 | Thats it :) It's pretty good too. Does a good job. Only thing it doesn't seem to do is play fullscreen (the whole screen) like PowerDVD. It plays as the DVD was meant to play. |
