Oh, for anyone interested in the different scan line pattern, with more vertical lining, on my Mitsubishi SWE, I transferred the scenes with scan lines to a DVD via a Toshiba DVD recorder connected to a Pioneer LD-V850.

The DVD has two titles. The first title is from my SWE and has all the scan line scenes, plus a few clips just so you can get an idea of the overall SWE laserdisc quality. Apparently, my Mitsubishi pressing looks inferior to the Pioneer SWE pressing msycamore owns; however, it does show a different (more detailed) pattern here, so go figure!

The second title is from the 1997SE. It shows the scan line patterns from this edition, as well. As the 1997 LD is a laserdisc benchmark, I included these clips mostly to show how well my set-up transfers LDs to DVDs.

You can download this DVD here if you're interested:

It's an ISO so you can extract the folders with WinRAR. By the way, this new DVD is higher quality than the Xvid I posted in my earlier post, so there are (slightly) less artifacts.

Thoughts, as well as tips to improve transfer quality, are always appreciated.
