When lifes hits rock bottom Poke you have a solid foundation to start with... Awesome to see you back again. You have been missed personally but ill assume from others also.
Winter time here and starting to get low on Laserdiscs to watch. Spent a day out hunting around locally for discs, The usual standard movie discs id never watch, actually came across a large pile of Anime but its not my jam, Best to leave for the next guy i figure.
I love my Motorsport so caught these.

Grand Prix Requiem (1987) [G98F5052]
This one is brutal, if you want 100 minutes of just raw death and disfiguring mostly F1 crashes with occasional flute jass this is your LaserDisc
Here the remote that came with my R7. Please note the 'V-DNR 3D' Select button. Im sure other remotes will have this. Enters the Comb Filter menu to turn on adjust all the settings.
So The Killer has to be up there with one of the best movies ive seen. Almost felt like standing up and appalling at the end Loved the grainy raw film image that my Criterion release had.
Going to enjoy the Jag action tonight, I already own the BTTF in fact i have this Jap trilogy in nice shape but i just love the cover and gatefold on this release.
Also found some strange.

NT Playboy Karaoke 1: Limit.Ed (1994) [PLD0001] bashed up
Oriental Dreams (1981) [ME003-U]
Dreams has a 'Laserdisc Sample' sticker which had not seen before
First memory watching a LD was on my oldest brothers set up who had a prologic 5.1 kenwood stage and we watched Toy Story Clearly remembering the pizza delivery scene when the sound moved left to right or vise versa behind me and thinking this media is awesome and so is my brother. Then him explaining how he was going to get a AC-3 decoder so the sound would be even better which i didnt get my head around at the time. Will always remember that, our mother saying 'movies on a record!' Also
D390 should be much better than a karaoke player. I have the d590 which is the model up and is a great player, no R7G but still good.
Can't say ive used frame by frame much at all, think all players can with CAV except maybe some very early players amd oddballs But someone will chime in, wouldn't describe it as 'sick'
