If you try to record a protected movie, typically on playback the picture will flash between light and dark every second or so, and sometimes the edge of the picture breaks up. But as mentioned above, it depends on your VCR. Some are able to make perfectly watchable recordings with the protection on.

A totally black video is a different problem - maybe a loose SCART plug?
