If you want a DVD backup, there are many available - the GOUT and the myriad OOT bootlegs. Since I'm sure your LD player isn't an X0, many of these sets (and definitely the GOUT) will look better in comparison anyway.
Do you mean that you want to ask if you could get your set transferred with the X0 player? My bet is no - the X0 team borrowed someone else's X0 if I'm not mistaken, and no longer have access to it. Besides, why would your set be any different than the set(s) the X0 team was using? Wouldn't it be easier to just wait for the X0 to get released? That would CERTAINLY look better than your set.
The raw X0 caps looked better than any LD cap I've ever seen. So its not pointless. Maybe its pointless to you, but not to the rest of us. Even a raw X0 cap would be the ultimate in persevering our LD copies.
There are other LD players that can cap pretty goddamn close to the X0,any high end Pioneer would be fine for me(I am glad I have one),most of the "making it look pretty" comes after the cap.
maybe it is just that my eyes are going bad LOL,but I have the timecoded avi file that was floating around years ago and my caps(with my new Pionerr,not my old RCA)look pretty damn close.
I would just like to see something,but in my opinion,we will see all 6 movies on Bluray before anything comes from this.
and have you guys seen what G Forces script can do to the GOUT as it is called here,they look fantastic,again,my opinion,but an LD transfer won't even come close to these.
I agree about the G-Force script. I used his script on the GOUT DVD's and they look far far better than my Definitive Collection laserdiscs, and my laserdisc player is an HLD-X9, so it's not far off of the X0. The GOUT DVD's with G-Forces script applied is the best I've ever seen the originals look. Sound quality is another matter, you can beat the lasers for sound quality.
