T2 boxset in "Dobermann" (1997):
...and you can see other laserdiscs - few second before, "Natural Born Killers", for example. |

Yesterday I wrote an article about various versions of The Thing:
http://blog.sporv.com/disentangling-the-thing/
as this is THE place to find info about laserdiscs, I wonder if an owner of the Signature Collection could help me.
I'm trying to find out if the AC-3 track is the "real" one using the 4-track stem (or the 6-track magnetic tape master).
The best way to understand it would be to capture the AC-3 track itself, but I don't know if there is someone with the knowledge AND the technology AND the will to do that! :angel:
But there is another way to find it out; a surround system is needed, though.
Select the AC-3 track, and just go around 15m, when "Superstition" is playing; check if the song is playing from the surround speakers continuosly after Naul's shot, or just briefly only when the meeting room is shown.
Thanks in advance! |

I resurrect (pun intended) this thread because I've found that The Matrix laserdisc screenshots from a TV, taken with a camera or a phone, are pretty different from the screenshots taken from a capture, that are very close to DVD.
Examples (from top DVD, LD capture, LD photos):

https://i.postimg.cc/zBGJsFCf/thematrixlaserdisc-photo2.jpg
(taken from this photo https://forum.lddb.com/viewtopic.php?f=32&p=61621 )
please disregard the aspect ratio and take only in account color grading.
The most probable answer for this difference should be the autowhite of the camera/phone used to take the photo/video.
Now, can anyone with The Matrix laserdisc take a look at their discs and confirm or confute this?
Or with the Region 4 DVD hippiedalek talked about here?
Because, if it's not due to autowhite, and not to the display (first OLED, second plasma), then ***maybe*** there are two different versions around? |

May I suggest to capture the same frames found on caps-a-holic?
Even if not exactly the same frame and/or not all of them, it could help to get the difference between laserdisc and digital video (DVD/HD-DVD/BD/UHD-BD)
Thanks! |

Agree with signofzeta pretty much on everything; in particular, keep your laserdisc player "alive", playing some disc sometimes during the year - if you keep it in storage without use, it most probably will suffer of... something!
The only thing I do not agree is about lens cleaning; you can do it, but YOU MUST use isopropyl alcohol ONLY, AND NOT the usual alcohol you have at home, AND ONLY if the player is otherwise working well mechanically. |

Hello, I completely forgot about this thread... :angel:
If someone is still interested, I'll manage to take some picture; by the way, it is NOT the one seen in the latest picture, but it was based on the Philips LDP600WS - think about a similar one, but with the size of HLD-X0 (more or less)!
IIRC this is the only prototype ever made, according to the project engineer who worked on it, Leonardo Chiariglione (yes, the same genius behind MPEG) - we talked about this years ago via email, but I can't find them anymore...
Anyway, I'm ready to part from it, and the money will be invested in a huge laserdisc capture project involving thousands title (more info soon).
How much should I ask for it?

Hello. Thank you for informing. I'm very interested in Analog HD because there are a lot of missing videos, photos and information (lost media). Can you share device photo? Also, what is the production date and features of the device? Is there a model name?
Away from home right now, but I'll post pictures ASAP (next week for sure, most probably on tuesday or wednesday)
Yes, it has a model number but can't recall it, as well as year of production; IIRC it was HD-MAC/PAL/NTSC laserdisc player, can't remember if he can play CDs as well; pretty sure it has SCART output.
I'll provide all the info I can along with the pictures: STAY TUNED! |
