Yes, it's a copyright issue. Am friend had the same problem with his
Panasonic (DMR-E50). He solved it by buying a so-called "video stabiliser".
He tells me that not only bypassed the copy protection, there was a vast
improvement in the quality of his VHS transfers.
Regretably, the firm he bought it from (Lektropacks) say they no longer
supply this kind of equipment. I'm told Maplin doesn't either but there are
plenty of other firms advertising on the internet and in the back pages of
video magazines.
