Do you use USB or, in my good experience, Firewire? Thanks! Oh no. I'm old (52). Old school transfers. Pinnacle DV500 DVD + Adobe Premiere 6.5 from the late 90s (or early 00s, I don't remember): https://www.ebay.com/itm/193721568418then, different home DVD recorders. No USB technology. Guess everything goes through those these days, lol.

I wondered about this - there'd be obvious copyright issues for full movies (and not much point anyway), but for the other stuff that only existed on laserdisc it could be very useful. Potentially just a laserdisc only frontend for archive.org?

After reading this thread, I personally believe that an archive of digitized LD disks would be very necessary, at least for private exchange of video material. But first, it would be necessary to establish some minimum quality standard, e.g. HUFFYUV video codec and 48Khz PCM audio, from which everyone could create any suitable format, such as DVD, SVCD, etc. I have a collection of over 300 LDs which I gradually try to digitize in my free time. I built a special computer for this purpose. With the last functional LD players, our film collections will be lost forever, so we should digitize what we can and exchange them as much as possible. Maybe everyone writes their own method of obtaining material from LD. There is a lot of garbage and faulty videos on YouTube. Regards.
