    Eek what the....

    Ok. Like many people i have the problem with macrovision on my xbox when I play dvds. Big deal, i'll just go buy an RF adaptor. But heres the weird thing. If I use my xbox on my OTHER vcr(which is being used for something else, so I can't use my xbox on it) , there is no macrovision, except when the vcr is recording. My vcr i usually use my xbox on is some old one from about 1980, and my alternate one is only a year old. I thought the xbox produced the bad quality because of macrovision, so why does it work perfect on my other, newer vcr? Maybe i've got this all backwards, some1 plz explain.

    Macrovision is the new pasta channel sponsored by the Kraft Corporation.

    Just to second the earlier question, what is macrovision? Is it something to do with stretching the picture out and deforming it (at a guess)?
