There's a master codec called "SUPER" (with a small circle with an R in it) which is ***THE*** ultimate transcoder! Can recode ANYTHING into any other format, and does it well! I watch movies on a Palm Tungsten E1 fer krissakes (WITH audio sync! heh) ... so MANY tools, so little time. "Broadcast flag?" Heh. Stripped in conversion. Anyone who does video has to have a proper set of tools. They're OUT there! :)

I can understand not wanting to bother, but when there's roadblocks to "fair use" as decided by the Supreme Court in the "Home Recording Act," then I *will* exercise my rights. For MOVIES, I buy them although if it's on a pay network, I'll put it on hard disk until I tired of it - but MOST of my personal DVD's are my own stuff, things downloaded from ARCHIVE.ORG (public domain) or local teevee worth keeping to laugh over. And of course, stored backups of DVD's I personally own. STILL ... if you PAY for a payTV channel, you should have the right to rerun a film until you puke, but not burn same ... I've been honked off TOO many times by "this movies has expired" before I *EVER* had time to SEE it. Not anymore. I'll HONOR copyright, but don't make me PAY to see it and when I finally can, tell me I *CAN'T* see it now. :(

That's what my server is designed for ... and TiVo, enforcing the rules of "I recorded it, but you didn't watch it before 6AM when the license expired" ... Nope.
