Gateway AR230 Progressive-Scan DVD Player / Recorder
Has been great!
So far this dvd recorder has been great. We have purchased two of these. One from Amazon and one from Gateway. The one we purchased from Amazon does have the feature to turn off the macrovision and you can legally make back up copies of all the copyrighted dvds & vhs tapes that you own. The same unit we bought from Gateway.com for $100 less does not have the macrovision on/off feature but it did have the region free option. To see if your unit has the \\"Macrovision On/Off\\" feature on your remote press \\"Setup\\" then highlight \\"exit\\", while \\"exit\\" is highlighted enter \\"2960\\" and press enter. Another menu should open with the option to select your region code or make it region free and another option to turn macrovision on or off. <br />
