Hi

Better start with introducing myself. I’ve been visiting this board for some month (as a guest). I came from Myspleen thx to Rikters cool uploads

I just got Crash by David Cronenberg on LD with Audio commentary by David Cronenberg and a making-of featurette. As far as I know the DVD only contain the movie.

I was thinking about making a DVD from this LD, would it be of any interest…

I just need to get me LD fixed, most of the time will not read the LD’s even thou the Disc looking fine. So guess it’s a matter of cleaning the lens.

Welcome to the forums Dizzy !

I think that's a great idea - I've been a huge fan of this film and the commentary is by all accounts fascinating. I was in the audience when Cronenberg was interviewed by JG Ballard when the film came out as part of the London Film Festival before all the hoopla of "Ban This Car Crash Sex Movie" (a real UK front page banner headline in a "news"paper !).

If you've seen the preservation of The Game or Se7en that digitalfreaknyc has released - I'd say something along those lines would go down a treat - especially if you just capture it as a commentary only-track. It's far more effective that way.

Cheers,

I’d love a copy of the audio to synch up with a copy of my DVD. Can’t see the point in capturing the inferior LD video though, to be honest.

Rip the track, encode it to mp3, and up it at http://rapidshare.de/
