VHS and MC - PLease Help

Hello All
I am hoping someone can help.
I have purchased a cheap VHS machine with the intention of copying my old
VHS Tapes to our media centre. As the VHS technology is becomming obsolete,
I see it fitting to transfer our wedding etc to the media centre.
The VHS machine only has an atenna output and input. The output goes to our
media centre and the input comes from our aerial. We are able to watch
television but cannot play back any of our old VHS videos. When we play any
VHS tape it plays but is very fuzzy. If I remove the aerial from the input
on the VHS Machine, it becomes very clear for a short period then throws up
a blue screen message saying that it is Restricted Content.
After searching the net, I have found no solution to this. Infact I have
found that it is a copyright restriction.
Copyright? How odd, it is my media centre, my VHS tapes containing if
anything, my own "copywritten" content. My wedding has nothing to do with
Microsoft or VHS for that matter and I believe that I have the right to
protect my content and convert it into a format that I may view on my media
centre.
Could someone please help me find a solution?
Surely if I can get a clean playback signal, I can use the media centre to
copy it. It is after all, my content, not VHS or Microsofts.
Hugely Disappointed and Frustrated.
