I used to do transfers back in the day of non-porn, but that was 15 years ago. I had a Canopus ADVC-1000 then that worked well converting to DV. I long since sold that but I have a MiniDV camera that does passthrough so I can transfer tapes that way. The Sony VCR I used then no longer works so I picked up a middle of the road Panasonic off Ebay for about $60. So far it's working decently. I also have an ATI TV Wonder USB capture device coming that I'm going to experiment with.

I'm using VirtualDub to adjust brightness, color, deinterlace and do some low level noise filtering. So far the results are not bad at all on my practice runs.

To my knowledge, commercial porn doesn't use Macrovision due to licensing fees.
