dvd to video

[Chris Dooley <DooleyC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I know this is a little off topic, but i have a question.
Last night i was trying to use the xbox to record a videotape of a movie that i was playing thru the xbox (dvd) into the vcr (using the rca cables) and a high quality videtape.

I go back to check the video and it fades in and out and has red lines going across the screen?  Do they make protection that doesnt allow you to record from cd to tape now?  When did this happed or is this just a stupid x box thing, as i have already found out the xbox does not play recorded cd's at all......only "store bought" cd's.  Maybe I am doing something wrong, but i doubt it...?

peace
