It may not be appropriate for this thread but I'm also willing to use my HLD-X9 to create captures if someone had the right hardware, software, and know how. I guess it would have to be local to me or send me the proper equipment as I won't ship out the X9. The X9 has been modified to produce a sharper image from it's S-video output and use it's internal 3D comb filter. It may be a small step down from the X0 in terms of basic video quality, but it also has a brand new laser, spindle motor, belts, and was setup by Duncan Hunter, who is the top laserdisc tech in the US. I agree with NIN that the new laser for his X0's would likely give better results as well, according to how many hours the current laser has on it. I'd love to see an X0 to compare with!
