I've tried copying from a VHS copyguarded tape to Beta.
One time I looked at the output I was receiving and quit
before going any farther (I was getting a rolling copy) and
the other time I continued since I seemed to be getting a
decent signal most of the time.
In both cases my Beta unit was recording, even if the
output signal was rolling. I don't know if this is because
my Sanyo recorder was one of the lower priced units or
what... if I understand what people are saying I shouldn't
have gotten anything at all when I tried to record a copy-
guarded tape.
As for copying to a Beta, when I did this a while back
most of the tapes I tried to copy were not copyguarded.
