r/LaserDisc

Caveats being no extra video processing from a device like a retrotink or the other expensive ones. Just an image from your player to your tv with nothing in between.

I haven’t really seen good examples showing what laserdisc looks like. It’s helpful to know so we can gauge if our players or discs are out of whack. Specifically noise, weird chroma stuff, etc. Will a late 80s player show more? Is image quality relatively the same throughout most players?

Seeing examples from different models across the years would be helpful. Because I honestly don’t know if what I’m seeing on my screen is what i should be seeing. Im in the laserdisc game late. I have no idea what it should look like. And from my own experience of capturing still images off my phone, images look better than reality.

Player will not flip from side A to side B - it gets stuck and shows the picture frozen on the screen with the A-B logo

Also they tray needs help manually to open - and then will do it on its own for a few times

Anyway yo fix so its flips

hey

I was wondering if the various GGV releases are pretty much the same or are there any differences

Of course I know the 12" and 8" discs are very different. What I mean is the various releases of the same size. For example for a 8" you got GGV-1002, 1003, 1012, 1069 etc..

I am asking because I have been looking to get one of those for quite some time, but prices seemed to be insane as of late. However there is one for sale right now on Ebay (a GGV-1003), as an auction and it might end at an acceptable price. So I am very tempted
