July Bonus #3: After Burner / Super Hang-On LD Rip
🕑 Added 2023-07-22 14:00:40 +0000 UTCWell, it's another one of those rips of official Sega home longplay videos from the ’80s. I've done a horrible thing and picked up a LaserDisc player so I can digitize material from a different medium altogether. Is the video quality actually better than VHS video? I don't know! But I have never owned an LD player before, so this is kind of neat?!

Sort of. I used a Framemeister for this, but have since switched to RetroTink because tracking on old VHS tapes causes the FM to desync.

Never owned a LaserDisc player up to this point? So LaserActive Works isn't on the immediate horizon :P On a serious note. Laserdiscs look better or worse more depending on the player than the media. Where basically any piece of digital media looks the same with minor differences due to encoders on say DVD or Blu-Ray. Laserdisc players can give wildly different results with the same disc and different players

Using a RetroTink to get stable signal from LaserDisc into HDMI for capture, or…?
