You have to have a player, or a program, or a firmware upgrade that will defeat Macrovision. Most DVD's have Macrovision technology that senses when you are hooking up a player to a VCR and will distort the picture (VCR's cant handle the extra sync pulses and fake video data that Macrovision encoded media puts out)

Depending on what player you have you might be able to hack it to disable macrovision.Check your players abilities at vcdhelp.com

I have a tv with a built in vcr and i can record dvd's without any special hardware/mods etc. if u have one try it, not sure if it works for everyone tho.
