Just wanted you guys to know that, Nerfherder kindly offered to send me his capture of the UK LD of THX 1138, so now we have all three letterbox transfers to work with! according to him, the UK transfer should have less haloing and edge enhancement than the US transfer, so it could prove to be very useful! Thank you, you scruffy looking Nerfherder! ;)
No problem - hope you guys find it of some use. Was watching it last night and it really doesn't look too bad at all. Was transferred using a Pioneer CLD-2950 LD player, and a Panasonic stand-alone DVD recorder. Pretty good quality Pro-fi Gold video interconnects, and Van Den Hul 'The Name' for the audio. Wish I could remember the model number of the DVD recorder but that's long gone in the old memory banks alas.
Well send that off to you tomorrow.
