No worries.

I know what you mean about not building people's hopes too high.
After all, the Technidisc factory got some not-so-glowing reviews:

Blam Entertainment Group said:

Technidisc continued to suffer from generally poor replication. Most discs contain an excessive amount of single-line dropouts and all CLV/CAA sides suffer from excessive crosstalk on all laserdisc players.

I don't even know what crosstalk looks like, but it doesn't sound good.

And don't forget this comment from mitch@lddb.com:
"The Technidisc pressing from 1993 is not very good"
Maybe he meant crosstalk?

While some of us find the content of this LD quite interesting, possibly the disc itself could be (relatively) poorly mastered.
