This definitely has a certain nostalgia to it and I would have just a capture, IVTC'ed if you have time. This release has never been transferred and it would be fantastic to see even a rudimentary '04 bootleg style transfer of it; if your samples are any indication, this will be well-received.

It's already IVTC'd, basically just encoding left if I decided to just upload it as it is. I'm not sure I get what you mean by a "rudimentary '04 bootleg style transfer"?

I love the white levels.

This disc has a very "real" look to it, IMO.

Yeah, I agree. Some details are blown out in this transfer as well, (see garage lights) but for the most part the levels aren't clipped and look very nice. The levels in my samples can of course be improved and aren't final.

The transfer do have an overall yellow tint and a few other issues like in the screen-caps I posted and the Laserdisc itself have unfortunately some of the worst rainbowing I have seen on any of my Laserdiscs, if you try to filter that out in avisynth you often end up with desaturated colors in my experience, small objects like blinking lights and lasers gets desaturated or completely colorless. I've seen it in other SW-transfers. Apparently it is most effective to apply such a filter before you IVTC but I have never seen it done completely succesfully without destroying other parts of the picture. So, I'm leaning towards just leaving it as it is. IVTC'd and resized from a 5-cap median.
