Sounds like a classic case of the "false macrovision" problem where the Marvel mistakes a camcorder tape for a protected tape.
Try Sun's macrovision hack in the downloads section. Be sure to match the patch to your version of the drivers and Videotools.
I've never tried it, but other have reported some success.

Click on the left hand frame's "Download" link. Its "Sun's VT1.51" or "VT1.52" to match your version.
As I said, I've never tried them.

Of course, if you hopped in from another MURC forum then you won't have the left frame that Wally mentions - and you'll have missed out on half the fun too.
