PROBLEM CAPTURING VIDEO FROM VCR AND ANALOG CAMCORDER

[Duke Nukem]

While trying to captue DVD-video from my Camcorder I always get this message "Macrovision detected" "Capture Disabled"

I have this hardware "VideoOh! DVD (AVC-2210) for more than two years, and I've never had a problem capturing my home videos and transfering them onto DVD/CD since I bought it. Couple of weeks ago I tried to capture my last home video I made, but suddenly I got this message "Macrovision detected" "Capture Disabled" I was really surprised to see this, since I was using my camcorder and I was transfering my home video, I wasn't trying to copy a copy-protected video. I went to the Adaptec web site and they have a new version 1.3, I downloaded, run it, and still get the same message. I played my home video thru my VCR and the same message appear. I unistalled the whole MyDVD software and reinstalled it again and nothing change. I hope you guys have some solution for this, since my other daughter's birthday is coming up and I don't want to have a pile of tapes laying around. This happens only when I try to capture DVD-video from camcorder or VCR. When I use the Video-CD option it works fine, not when I use the DVD-video option.

 

I'm using MyDVD 5.2 version
