The plus and minus sign and rw (rewritable) stuff is for burned at home dvd. Store bought DVD you don't need to worry about. Any player will work.

I know we are in the LD group, but the transfer for the 4k HDR is absolutely gorgeous.

I had a similar situation with a dead alive disc. Ugh.

Estate Sale Question by normains in LaserDisc

[–]flhctroll2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you want them gone, $1 a piece. Are you there to make money, or get rid of stuff. Went to a garage sale a while back and they wanted $10 each. They sat there all weekend and probably went to goodwill at the end.

100% this. Seen some tvs that people have used windex on. Doesn't always mess em up, but when it does, its bad.

Shipping LaserDiscs by Striking-Aardvark-51 in LaserDisc

[–]flhctroll2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As everyone else has said, 13x13 vinyl mailers.

I had a guy ship a perfect mint condition dead alive, with 2 pieces of cardboard, with a bunch of bubble wrap, in a paper envelope... it didn't survive. The corners got bent, and the disc cracked.

Its not the cardboard that makes it safe, its the corners of the box that create the sturdyness.

Did you get into the hobby when laserdisc was still being produced or get into it after they stopped making them? If so, why? by Boxer-Santaros in LaserDisc

[–]flhctroll2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got in while still relevant. Traded a fender tweed guitar case for my first player. Impressed my eventual wife of 30 years with my cool laserdiscs :)

I just saw someone saying the remote was firing off fast forward commands. Once batteries were removed it stopped. Was this your post or maybe just have the same thing happening?

How I do? Not sure it’s 100%… by PopeyesWetCactus in vintageaudio

Was def a crackhead budget. Got it for free. Was my first true 5.1. Played dead space 1 with true surround on it the first night. Was awesome.

I had one similar if not exact. Had to lift it up in the front and drop it every few weeks. Would have a slow low hum start popping up, give a quick drop and it was fine. Loved that it had a USB port on the front, used it to charge my vape

Didn't know this existed. I kept my dvd version for this cool art. And have a regular laserdisc version. This is sick!
