I noticed on Moth3r's EP IV that there are occasionally bright white lines across the screen. This happens a number of times troughout the film. Have you encountered that same problem on your capture Arnie? Is this because of laser rot or something else? And also, have you encountered any other audio/video bugs on your laserdiscs?

Also if Moth3r plans to do a V.2 (fingers crossed!) and fix some of the bugs of V.1 than I defo think he should take you up on that audio offer. I think it's important to have the best possible sound with the best possible picture. Having seen the quality of Moth3r's work, I'm actually pretty certain that if Lucas never releases the OOT on DVD (which is think is very likely), I will be quite happy with the PAL laserdisc to DVD transfers, because the quality is definitely there. It's just a matter of bringing it out more, enhancing the qualities and decreasing the faults. Anyways, keep up the good work fellas!

I've seen a few white lines. It's no rot, it's in the source used for the LD since they are in the exact same frames in both my own and Wer-Al_Zwowe's set. I haven't really seen or heard other video/audio bugs. But there are many frames with dirt. I've seen some rot in both sets. I'll combine the best FACES from both LD sets (4 FACES per movie).

The quality is probably there, but I can't reach all of it. I think X0 will make every other transfer look pathetic... but I wanted to do my own transfer.

I'm going to try and fix the wipe with Wer-Al_Zwowe's german THX set which does have the wipe. Thanks Wer-Al_Zwowe for lending me all your discs!!!

OMG. Those coffret trilogie covers are simply awesome. I would love those exactly as they are. No text. Nothing else. Arnie D. - Please stick with the original ANH design. I think it suits your whole trilogy of covers better than the Tusken Raider painting.

Coov - your covers look great too.

I love these very different takes on cover artwork.


I also prefer the first ANH design. Mainly because it's a painting included in the ld box and because you can see the raider painting is from a different source.

Thanks for the tip moth3r.

But correcting the DC offset? I don't know. Why would the offset be wrong? How do I know what it should be? I think I'll leave it as it is.

For who is interested, here you can find two samples of PCM audio from Hope (analogue and digital capture) to compare. If the difference between the 2 is really as small as I think it is, I'm not sure I will go thru the trouble of capturing the audio digitally and sync it up with the video when the audio I already have is almost as good and is in sync perfectly.

All right, the main reason I came to this site was because I wanted a DVD copy of the OOT. Dark Jedi's "FACES" set is perfect because it will match my VHS tapes. But I never got it. And I'm still waiting for it.

So if you've got a few extra copies of the "FACES" set, PM me about it. I'll send you my mailing address so you can send the set to me.

Please, I really want this set. And I feel I've waited long enough.

This is so ridiculous it's funny...
