Macrovision on RGBS

[stanleyntl]

Is the macrovision signal carried on the RGB output of DVD players?
I assumed that only composite and svideo output was affected because this stops vhs/svhs recorders from copying discs; also most US DVD recorders only support svideo recording not component or RGB.
If so, how? Surely component colour signals (R,G and B) and the sync line (composite) can't carry a macrovision signal too?

composite sync is composite so will carry the macrovision signal have a search for SDI.......................................

Macrovision is carried in the sync pulses, so it doesn't matter what format the video signal takes, it will be there.

[Video Filter]

I can asure you that Macrovision is carried through the "Y" Components output of the "Y", "Pb, "Pr" signals. I have done many experiments with this.

If you need a way to filter out Macrovision from components outputs, the Video Filter is the only device in the market that I know of, which allows you do do this.

Sine I can't post sites for devices that do this on this forum, according to the moderator, you can write to me at [email address removed] and I will then point you to the website.
