Wtf, is this legit? Never seen it before.
Yeah obviously I mean I know it couldn’t work, but I’ve never even heard of this as a copy protection method. What was it used on? Like Hollywood?
It was used in only one VHS tape called Cat Sitter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dEDxj-0Hbao

God dammit. I have to use my phone from now on. Video playback is messed up on my laptop 😭
jokes aside, this would make a mildly interesting SCP. like a cognitohazard but for any kind of electronic recording device
actually it could be useful for preventing electronic spread of other replicable infohazards. by playing the uncopyable tape(s) on a loop in proximity to the infohazard such that any potential recorder would also capture the uncopyable tape(s), transmission would be prevented as the recorder would simply be destroyed
I really surprised I didn’t get rickrolled.
Yeah. Playing and recording uses the same mechanism in a VCR. Writing uses a different method but it would be on the second tape. Unless you tried to record over the tape which I don’t think works on non-recordable anyways.
Okay, then plass edit the post title to reflect that. People not opening the comments may thing this is real…
We’re you worried you may damage your new VHS tapes by copying them with your vcr?
Was gonna say, smells like bullshit.
These things actually work. I once tried to copy a KTC protected VHS and it ended up breaking my cd drive beyond repair
Thank goodness I’ve just upgraded to laser disk.
What does KTC stand for?
Isn’t this easily bypassable by adding a recording device between the vcr and the display
