Hi,

I tried to digitize my old German VHS box yesterday, just to find out that they really look terrible and are only Pan&Scan (yeah, I really forgot…).
It’s this edition:

That should be the Pre-THX version,so as far as I know the so called “Silver Screen Collection”-Laserdiscs should be the same and best source available:

Sadly I neither own these discs or a laserdisc player, so my question is:
Does anybody here owns them and already digitized them? I would be sooooo thankful 😉

FWIW, I'm interested in this set as well.

I would gladly do it, as I can track down the LDs, but finding a PAL LD player in the USA is nearly impossible and almost always expensive.

We have a few members here who own PAL LD players, so there's some hope that these will get preserved in the near future.

A picture is worth a thousand words. Post 102 is worth more.

I’m late to the party, but I think this is the best song. Enjoy!

I have always wondered if these are the same transfers as the Pyramid french box which had a atrociously bad transfer of star wars.
