I think Mallwalker is investigating that.

 That's good. I'll be interested in his findings...

So, what pressing is your LD then?

Going by the info in the link I posted earlier, I believe mine is the Mitsubishi pressing since its got no surround check; however, I'm not sure. Is there any way of positively indentifying it?

your screen-cap isn't the same frame but it appears to display more horizontal resolution compared to the others, see the scan lines on the screen.

Oh crap. The cap I posted was from a transfer I made that I anamorphically enhanced with DVD Rebuilder. Would that make it appear to have more horizontal resolution?

Here's the original non-anamorphic capture:

I'm not sure if that makes a difference, so I'd love to hear your thoughts, msycamore. Additionally, what you perceive as additional detail on the screen may just in fact be video noise. Here's some other (non-anamorphic) captures from my LD to get an idea of the overall amount of noise.

 

Once again, I'd love to hear your thoughts on these. Looking at these again, you may be right about a tad bit more horizontal detail. Anyway, I made a whole capture of the laserdisc. I do say that it seems to look far better in motion; I could post a video clip if you wanted me to...

In any case, and I'm sorry if this is way too off topic, but I am using a Pioneer LD-V850 to transfer these and would be interested in some info about it. Is it related to the LD-V800 from Arnie.d's V8 Capture?
