You are seeing the effect of Macrovision protection... -
what is that because this is a retail dvd that hasn't been copied.Comment

Normally, if you have your player hooked up DIRECTLY to your television via S-Video, you won't see this.
If you have your player hooked up through your VCR to your television (or to your television via other-than an S-Video connection) you WILL see this.

Check for your specific make and model - and see if there's a way to turn off Macrovision, either directly or via a "hack".
The only other alternative would be to purchase one of the many "black boxes" available (about $39.99US) that circumvent Macrovision...Comment
