Unrecordable video

Video with copy protection cannot be recorded on this
DVD Recorder. When the DVD Recorder receives a copy
guard signal while recording, recording stops and the
following message appears on the screen.
You cannot record copy protected movie.
Concerning Copy Control Signals
TV broadcasts that contain copy control signals may
have one of the following three signal types, COPY-Free,
Copy-Once and Copy-Never. If you want to record a
copy-once type program, use DVD-RW with CPRM in
VR Mode and DVD-RAM.

- Content Protection for Recordable Media (CPRM)
CPRM is a mechanism that ties a recording to the media
on which it is recorded. It is supported by some DVD
recorders, but not by many DVD players. Each blank
recordable DVD has a unique 64-bit media ID etched in
the BCA. When protected content is recorded onto the
disc, it can be encrypted with a 56-bit C2 (Cryptomeria)
cipher derived from the media ID.
During playback, the ID is read from the BCA and used
to generate a key to decrypt the contents of the disc.
If the contents of the disc are copied to other media, the
ID will be absent or wrong and the data will not be
decryptable.
