By Beta do you mean just the old Beta video cassette recorders? I don't, but maybe it would be worth a shot.
I have tried copying the tape to other tapes and trying to record from the copied tape, but that doesn't work.
I have a dual deck VCR that I bought a very long time ago (It cost 600 bucks at the time, I had saved like all my money to buy it; you can get them for a little over 100 bucks now at most places) and I have never been cockblocked by any kind of copy protection, whether I'm taping from DVDs, or rental tapes, or whatever.
whorable, is this box something that can be installed like a descrambler (which I don't know how to install but my friends had one and they made it sound so easy)? How would I obtain such a box? Are they expensive?
Sometimes it's just a problem because back when I used to make tapes of TV Shows or whatever, I'd put 10 seconds of black at the begining of the tape, just so that I don't end up cutting shit off the tape every time i make a copy. A lot of times I'd just put on a DVD, and pause it on a black sceen before the movie actually starts, and tape THAT for 10 seconds. So now I'm trying to convert some of these tapes to DVD, I end up cutting off the beginging of whats on the tape, because it won't let me record that black screen, just because it came from a DVD.
