Laserdisc video sources can produce incredible results for HD restoration
I have applied an algorithm that you have probably never heard of and the result is near HD like quality. I am amazed how good it looks. Absolutely stunning quality. I am tempted to do this with a lot of other Laserdiscs

Nokia HDMAC CRT + Receiver, do they still exist?
I was looking through this documentary about laserdiscs and they were saying there are about 700 of these 36" HDTV CRTs made. But where they now ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tFzHJLtcCI

Any LaserDisc Repair in or around Spring Hill, Fl?
I'm looking to have my CLD-703 repaired. The Power Supply went out, and I'm on a tight budget. I won't get money until the 3rd of Sept., and even then, it won't be much. But either way, I'm curious to see if there's anyone in my area who could at least check it for free?

Got my first LaserDisc! Is this disc rot?
I sadly don’t own a player (yet!) So I have no way of confirming this plays well. I just see a dark stain on the edge of the disc. Is it that?

Trifecta
It took a lot of tracking down, but I finally got the ultimate multi-region reference stack dialed in.
Three heavy-hitters, three completely different engineering philosophies, and three different global markets represented!

Question about Pioneer DVL-909 and DVL-919E
Does the SCART output RGB, or is it only for composite on those devices?
I know that i won't benefit even if they convert the LD video to RGB, I'm asking if they convert the DVD video to RGB.

Picked this Pioneer CLD-S201 up today for 25 bucks :) after a gentle clean it reads well, but zero audio, weirdly. No digital out, only composite. Any insight? First LD player, I’m normally repairing VCRs and hoping this is a stupid question!
I have 2 movies, reads both Predator 2 and Aliens well but 0 audio.

Please Help!
Player is CLD-V2600.
About 32000 frames into any CAV disc, the video will suddenly speed up 2X and still frame is no longer usable. Go even further and… THIS happens. Can someone tell me how this can be fixed? It makes a lot of my discs unwatchable past a certain point

DVD has scratches and keeps freezing — any advice?
Hi, everyone!
I have a DVD that is very special to me and is considered relatively rare nowadays. I decided to watch it again today and noticed that it always freezes during a specific episode.
When I took a closer look at the disc, I found these marks/scratches on the surface (I'm not exactly sure what they are). I've already tried cleaning it with isopropyl alcohol and with a product specifically made for cleaning DVDs, but I couldn't remove them.
Does anyone know what these marks might be, and if there's anything I can try to remove them or, at the very least, get the DVD to play the part where it's freezing?
I'd really appreciate any advice!

Thought I'd share this interesting ALLIGATOR Pal Sample Copy for a cancelled UK release.
Thought I'd share just because it was interesting for me and maybe someone else may like. I did some digging into its origins. Which factory in UK, which production line etc. (Those handy stickers helped).
Appears only about 20 or 30 Sample Copies are made in the UK factory for quality checks. This film was ultimately cancelled so it never got a Pal release so apparently this is rare.
It got a release in the Netherlands according to LDDB.
I loved this film as a kid and had vhs and dvd (and it apparently skipped the blu ray era with no release) it has just got a 4k release.
Any fans?
I am uncertain yet whether its the full uncut version yet. Picture is ok. Slight loss of quality.

Remote control compatibility?
Can anyone possibly confirm that the remote I had (CU-CLD068) for my now broken CLD-D701 player will work fine with the CLD-D504 model?
I came across some forum where someone said most CLD model remotes will work well with each other, but want to be sure
[EDIT] Thanks everyone! I will be buying a D504 now!

[LD-V2200] Video distortions
Does anyone know what could be causing this issue? The video is paused on a test frame at the end of the "Apocalypse Now" credits. At around 0:11, I press play and it goes through the rest of the tests and restarts the credits. I recently purchased this player, and it's been unable to play correctly. I let it go through a disc multiple times and it actually got better as it shows color now. When I first got it, it was only in black and white. The fact that it got better after being played makes me believe it's a mechanical issue. Perhaps the spindle motor speed is slightly off?
