15 years ago... (none / 0) (#1)

About 15 years ago I was a student manager for a sports team at a university...we needed to watch game tapes in our hotel room...preparation or review, I cannot remember.

Same issue, the connections were protected...however, a quick call to engineering resulted in the cables being disconnected for us to hook up the VCR.

I guess we could have copied movies...but we were a bit busy...

Seems that polices are getting tighter...better question would have been, can you ENABLE the DVD inputs?  That cannot violate the rules against copying movies...since you cannot copy using the INPUTs...
