Has anyone used a Macrovision Remover please and if so, what make /
model did you use and was it as good as you thought.


Yes, I used to use a box between the video player and a recorder -
but the best tool is a Canopus ADVC100 or later models. A little (if
at all) documented feature is that passing anything through the
Canopus disables all macrovision. Paid about £200 GBP for mine years
ago....


You need a TBC, not an analogue DV converter (although the some of
the more expencive models do contain a TBC also)! All marcovision does
is disrupt the sync pulses, reconstruct the sync and all will be well,
disclaimer except that what the OP wants to do is still illegal
