The Magic Years (Laserdisc Rips)

Thanks for this....Great stuff.

Not to sound ungrateful, but does anyone else have a better LaserDisc transfer?
These rips aren't ideal, considering they're ~1GB for 1 hour of video.
Chinwonder's VHS transfers in XP mode are still the best in my humble opinion :)

Thanks a lot for sharing. It's a good update really. But I wonder that Mr. Chief Mouse wants to play with this. Maybe we can get the best possible quality.

Any plan or possibility for that dear Chief Mouse?

Even CM can't fix duplicate frames.

Nice, thanks.

In fact I can, I have done that for a few videos shared on QZ already if you had read the descriptions I sometimes post along them :-). I won't be bothered right now though cos another member sent me a better source of One Vision part (only that part) in MPEG (DVD format) which is interlaced NTSC and superior to this source. He might upload and share the full thing when he has spare time. Anyway, I managed to do a decent conversion of it to PAL and will try to include some bits of that in the GVH version that I posted. So a v02 should come soon!

I stand corrected, but surely removing duplicate frames throws the audio out of sync eventually?

Not really. A video at 12 fps can play the same speed and a video at 60 can play in slow motion if desired. Depends on what you set it to.

In some places approximately every sixth frame is duplicated, in others places all frames are present. Bit odd.

Perhaps some of the sources come from an NTSC master while others do not.

Perhaps the laserdisc itself also suffers the same problem, although I would be surprised if it did.

Thank you.

It would be great if Chief Mouse tries to work with this material.

The torrent isn't loading for me... =(

Could be great even if it is a huge work i think! Well... we hope! :)
