Re: No copy protection detected even though the DVD box says there is one

I think I added the information too late in my previous message, but these sets were legitimately bought in hypermarkets, and they are all from the same "publisher" (TF1 Video / CBS DVD). I just noticed that there is a Macrovision logo on the boxes. The set of my screenshot was commerciali...

Re: No copy protection detected even though the DVD box says there is one
