A Hard Day's Night (1987 Criterion Collection 2-Disc Laserdisc Edition) DVD

[applebonkerz]

Thanks very much for this… And if my memory serves me correctly the 2 disc Criterion LD was edited…the scene where they grab Paul’s grandfather from the club was removed…maybe to fit on the CLV disc?

I didn't notice any missing scenes. It wouldn't make much sense to cut any scenes from the film on the 2-disc set and then include bonus features.

This copy actually has that scene.....I know it's missing from mine

You mentioned CLV -- your copy is probably CLV then, that's totally different to the Criterion CAV edition that this version is made from.

A question, do you actually capture the full Laserdisc output and then down-sample it to DVD files, or do you just directly capture the Laserdiscs into a DVD recorder? If the former, it might be worthwhile to also share the full-resolution output captures as mp4 files or something -- especially for a CAV release like this one. Either way, the CAV versions are special, and are great for everyone to be able to see.

Equipment used:
Panasonic Prism LX-1000 Laserdisc Player
Sony VRD-MC5 DVD Recorder
Verbatim DataLifePlus DVD-R

Maybe sometime in the future I’ll capture directly to digital file.

I’ll have to dig my copy out…my player still functions…I think…
