FBI Video Warning!	Can't Post

So, most videos start with an FBI copyright notice message right. Where do you get that? I have no idea where to find that video message on the web! Do you get that from somewhere? Is every coprighted work allowed to display it?

Yes, you can display an FBI warning. You might have to create your own with a title generator...copying one off of your kid's Disney video is a copyright violation! :)
I've been using a much friendlier copyright notice on my tapes, having stolen the idea from Jon Cooksey. It reads:
"Please don't copy this videotape! It's not nice, and it's against the law."

LOL I've always gotten a kick out of people asking me to pirate the FBI warning.
Just type it up, man.

Check with most duplication houses, they usually have one on hand, generic
type, I have one that came with some editing software I bought some time ago.
I had the Dazzle software for some home video stuff and it was in the bundle.
Dazzle is now with Pinnacle.

Re: FBI Video Warning! let em copy it [In reply to]	Can't Post

I encourage customers to copy as many as they please from their DVDs. I enclose a page with each disc which explains why a few machines won't play them and tips on monitor adjustments to make all video look better and at the end I invite them to make copies for all family and friends. More copies out there means more exposure. Ya know already they will do it so why intimidate them.
