  • Is there a way to disable protection from VHS videos so they can be burned to DVD?

  • Answer:

    Hi Larman, The notch is only there to keep you from accidentally recording on the VHS tape. If I understand correctly your VHS has copy protection embedded onto the tape. If you have a copy protected tape you will have to remove the copyguard. You can legally do this to copy your own tapes. I had an extensive VHS library that I archived onto DVDs. What you have to get is a device like "Simo T120 GoDVD". It removes the copy guard and enhances the picture. You plug your source VHS player into it and plug it into the input of your DVD recorder. I got mine at Best Buy. It was $69.95. It works well and I had no problems with it. I was able to copy all my tapes. Norm
