    broadcast flag preventing recordings - how to disable?

    christ, I think ATI has erred big in this. I think it even violates my fair use rights. of course the FCC is mostly to blame but ATI is going overboard in preventing recording of programs with these broadcast flags. I'm fully allowed to record these things, and I have not intention of...
