Apologies for the lack of updates. I did receive the set, and I attempted to do a DVD transfer with a Lite-On stand alone DVD recorder (kinda like a vcr). The connections were just composite, and the player is VERY old. I actually had to pull it out of my garage, and now my house is leaning toward the side of the theater room I placed it in. It wieghs more than your average Volkswagen.

The quality was not too hot. My player had sort of a "tracking" like issue, for which I have no adjustment. It did clear up after awhile, but upon playing back the DVD yesterday for the first time, I noticed some skipping at the end of the first side, so I'm going to check the LD tonight. Like I said, the LD player is a week older than Moses, so it may be beyond my equiptment to do much with this.

I'll try to post a sample tonight or tomorrow. I'll have to look up some instructions on getting mpg from .vob, but I should be able to swing it.
