If you were to capture all 3 with the same setup, I could median the 3 of them to get 1 good capture.cliftdean74 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 09, 2023 7:33 pmThose Let It Be laserdiscs are a nightmare.

Re: Ready Steady Go! Special Edition: The Beatles Live (1995 Pioneer Artists Laserdisc) DVD
Each time I bought one that turned out to have the infamous laser rot issue I returned it to the seller for a refund. Those Let It Be discs always sold for such a high price I couldn’t justify keeping it as just an artifact. I learned some years ago that there is a later model laserdisc player that uses a different laser technology. It reads through the laser rot (which was caused by the early adhesive they were using to manufacture the discs.) I’d love to have one of those players but it’s out of my price range.masterjedi wrote: ↑Sun Mar 12, 2023 4:42 amIf you were to capture all 3 with the same setup, I could median the 3 of them to get 1 good capture.cliftdean74 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 09, 2023 7:33 pmThose Let It Be laserdiscs are a nightmare.

This is the information I found from a message board a while back while researching the topic:recordroman wrote: ↑Fri Nov 17, 2023 11:25 amWhat is the make & model# of the LD player you mention?cliftdean74 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 17, 2023 9:24 amEach time I bought one that turned out to have the infamous laser rot issue I returned it to the seller for a refund.

"If you wanna play LD's from the bad old days of LD, you need a red laser, Muse capable, Japanese model like Pioneer and Sony made. The only U.S. model that can make much out of rotters is the LD-S2 with it's gas-diode pick-up. I have never used an LD-S2 to view rotted discs personally but it's said to be the next best thing to a red laser deck like my HLD-X9."
