Just a heads up to people annoyed that I keep capturing movies on different laserdisc players. I will be capturing Dark Tide and Demonic Toys with the CLD 3080's D.EXT feature because someone has claimed this improves the blacks and whites. Apparently the CLD 3080 is one of the rare if not only laserdisc players with this feature. I did not know this and I have not captured yet with this. I am capturing now and i do think I notice a difference but it could be a placebo effect where someone says one thing online when in reality it's not much different. I also have a CLD-99 coming in the mail and as much as it pains some of you I might capture the same movies again to see how it looks on that player. I mean I guess I can capture other movies too and then compare the CLD-3080 to the CLD-99. Just so I can change it up a bit. Now what are good movies to show off the capabilities of this D.EXT feature? Would it be movies such as Terminator, Alien, Aliens, or movies with some darker black scenes and maybe movies that have a bit of white in them too? Feel free to throw movie titles out there. I have Friday the 13th 1-8 but the third movie is rotted and I also have Noes 1-6. Edit: I think I might capture The Odyssey which is a great looking laserdisc from what I remember but it's such a long movie. I believe it's 3 hours long. This might be a good movie to test with the CLD-3080 D.EXT feature and the CLD-99 coming in the mail.

It's not awful. It's definitely watchable. Throwing that warning out there for those that might want to add this to their collection. I would suggest messaging sellers of this laserdisc to find out if this is common with this laserdisc. For the right price I don't think it would be bad but I don't think it would be smart to pay 80 or 100 dollars for a laserdisc with slight rot. Again quite watchable but I wonder if this affects the majority of The Mutilator laserdiscs. I would categorize it as light rot but my definition of light rot might be different than others.

Also you need to remember these films, while shot and put onto home video only a few years later they do sometimes have dirt on the original source and were made fast with cheap film stock so you may see issues too.

If it's not rot it's still very unattractive looking and is very noticeable at times. I label things that can bother people's eyes as rot and my vision isn't even good. I wear glasses and I feel like my prescription is never 100 percent correct.
