The warning you see when starting WinDVD for the first time also informs you of the Macrovision restriction. Macrovision is an anti-taping mechanism that modifies a signal so that the signal appears unchanged on most televisions but is distorted when played back from videotapes. Our software will not allow playback of DVDs with graphic boards that contain a TV out component unless they use Macrovision to prevent the creation of an illegal copy of the DVD title.
