You may want to try posting in the DVD Talk forum area instead of the DVD Club forum area. You'll probably get a better response there.

I borrowed this thing from a friend at work to put some dvd movies on my HI-8 camera (that way my 3 year old could basically have a movie machine with the 4 inch monitor built in when we took a 10 hour vacation drive). I searched all over for it, and the best place I could find was this canadian site:

I haven't ordered it from this site, but it is just like the one I borrowed from my friend.

I bought this one from Best Buy B&M

http://www.bgsales.com/us/electronics/sed.html

It was a little less expensive at BB, and it comes with a power supply and has S-VHS in/outs (unlike the other model listed in the post above). It works well, although I've read about a newer version of DVD Macrovision that this unit can not eliminate. Who knows, it's worked for me

BTW, it was "hidden" over near the Digital Cameras where I bought it.

I believe this is what you want at the best price. It handles both types of macrovision. http://www.cameraworld.com/cwc/produ...D=994865738253
