Macrovision crack for vid tools 1.51?

[Avrigus]

I read on a recent post that a guy called Sun claimed he has made a crack for video tools 1.51. Did anyone manage to get this crack off him and if so, does it disable the macrovision on the video output?

If anyone has this crack can they post a link for all to download? Thanks. :-)

I'm waiting for Sun to email the cracked drivers to me.

Give the guy a chance

[TheMorg]

Okay, one chance, then that's it. This isn't a charity you know ;-)

However long it takes, it'll be worth it...

[This_Idiot]

Your damned right this isn't a charity. But if anyone wants to make contribution to the "give This_Idiots kids a Christmas" cause, email me for details. I think that a major sponsorship from Lego would help out quite nicely

OK, Sun has emailed me the goods (In the last half hour). Now I know that you wouldn't want me to dish the candy without tasting myself, so If I don't respond within 24 hours you'll know that Sun's middle name is Borgia.

Boy, do you guys drive a hard deal for free!

I send to chris and a guy promises to uploads to a page and shares the address on the forum.

Damn...just discovered my G200 can't copy the VHS tape from work I have to do videocapture from for tomorrow morning by 10 am...ugh and I was hoping it would make short work of it at home...

...damn...

...nooo! i don't want to work on the g3's AV and premiere 4.2.1 :~(

[rad1701]

I have my own web page I can post the Macrovision fix also...once I get a copy for the 1.51 tools...
THANKS SUN & Co.

[Avrigus]

Hi guys,

I just recieved a copy of the crack via email from Sun himself. Thanks mate! It's a small .exe that you run in the windows/system directory which cracks two vid tools dll's (can't remember which ones).

I just performed a quick test with my macrovision protected copy of "Starship Troopers" and it captured without a hitch.

On the other hand when I tried to watch a DVD movie via the TV out into my video recorder the dreaded "contrast pulse" kicked in. I was hoping that this patch would eliminate the macrovision on the video output as well. I guess if we all bug Sun enough he might give us all what we want ;-)

P.S. If anyone wants a copy of the patch right now i've put a copy up on my web site, here's the URL: Macrovision crack for Video Tools 1.51

Ohh, and while you're there, check out my Avrigus web site, there's some nice MP3's from my band to download (shameless plug) :-)

thanks guys. sun himself emailed it to me, the swell guy. i found a little black box 'video stabilizer' that i put in between the inputs and i could capture but i'm finding my audio kinda fuzzy, gonna give this a try.

[TommyS]

Is it for the english version only or i can use it also with the italian version of the video tools?
Ciao

It's also up on the downloads section of the site.

I don't think the language should be a problem at all.

I did give it a blast earlier, and it solved the MV problem from a well known manufacturer of MV tapes. However, since MV also weakens the signal, patches of the display were flickery (although captured OK)
