I must say that the price is very reasonable ($7.49). The chinese subtitles are not a concern as long as the dialog is in english.

I've never encountered a non-NTSC VCD from Hong Kong.

I might be interested in your VHS copy. (I am not concerned about the release version.) Where are you located? I see you are from New York State. It would be a long shot if you were within driving distance from me. I do have some VHS sealed tapes for trade: Bill & Tedd's Excellent Adventure, Predator and *batteries not included. The other prerecorded tapes I have are used; but, in good condition. Examples are: Star Trek I, II and III; Who Framed Roger Rabbit; The Beatles Magical Mystery Tour; etc. Let me know.

I was wrong to call it CDV. I corrected my inventory spreadsheets to reflect this. I had to go to Wikipedia to figure out which was which.

I think 1991 or 1992 the last 5" CDV's were made. I've got a few VSD's that say 1991 on them. That is from Japan. (VSD's technically just being CDV's but with the cd audio track as 4 seconds silence and track 2 the ld video) In Europe i believe stopped a bit earlier, like 1989 or something. When i finally got money as a student in 1991 to buy cd's and stuff i went looking for those 'golden' discs in the Free Record Shop in The Netherlands, but the salesman said that they dissed those in 1990 or so. Plus i didn't have the equipment then to play the video of those discs as many teenagers at the time didn't have as well, what was one of the reasons it didn't catch on at that well at the target audience. It was a very shortlived format, so let's say from 1986 to 1992.

godzilla-2000 wrote: "2001" was also on VHD. You didn't mention it in your original post. I guess that I should have been more specific. I do not have a VHD player so I did not include VHD with the other formats that I own. I might add VHD if I could find a copy that is in good shape and not too expensive. For now, VHD will be a pipe dream for me. I have seen VHD players on E-bay; but, the prices have been sky high. Maybe, I will buy a VHD player after I win the lottery (ROFL) so that I could buy a VHD copy of 2001 for it.

brmanuk wrote: Yea there was a release of 2001 on VCD in HK. I have it. 3 discs. Thanks for that info. I haven't been back to this thread in a while. I did find a copy of 2001 on VHS on E-bay that I am eyeing right now. The only movie I have on VCD is Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. The 2 discs for the movie are in my DVD changer right now. The first time I played the movie I gave the DVD changer the disc number to load and it did the load and started playing. I watched the first disc with no problems. At the end, the changer unloaded the disc and then loaded disc 2 and started playing it. Mind you, the last 2 steps the player did on its own. I found out later why: the changer thinks that the VCD discs are CD's and plays them accordingly even though there is video and audio present. I wasn't prepared for such action. When you go to the changer's OSD for CD's, you find the Phantom Menace listed as a CD. I recently bought a Sony UBP-X800 player which can play a multitude of disc (CD's, DVD's, BD, 3D BD's, UHD, etc.). Sometime, I am going to take the above VCD's and try them in the X800 player. It might surprise me and read the discs. Since my DVD changer can play the VCD's, I should think that the X800 could.
