CED VideoDisc and Player Discussion

It has to be a bot, I mean if someone wanted to be efficient with spam they would chose a larger forum or at the least spam this one with something more relevant.

I actually just got a copy myself, haven't even watched it yet. My parents were on vacation and saw it in a used bookstore. My dad said the owner just gave it to him since she had no idea what it was!

I know enough Spanish to make me not interested in dinner after reading that. Why on earth would someone spam this site? Seems like a limited audience and therefore not a good place to try these games ...

20 years ago I probably was just learning to talk. Funny how all of the technology I enjoy is older than I am Razz

Hoping everyone on here has a happy and safe 4th! Keep all of your fingers intact and have a relaxing holiday!

If I were to attempt that I would trip every circuit breaker in my place! Gotta love college housing haha

Merry Christmas to you too! Have a safe and happy Christmas and a wonderful new year.

I have lurked here for a little over a year and have been a member for a little under a year. Still new to the whole CED hobby but thoroughly enjoying it and the community here!

Regardless of non proper storage issues involved the person could have done a better job of stacking them. That stack looks like it is about to tip over!

I think that both are awesome. CED and laserdiscs were both created before I was. I find it fun to play with technology that is older than I am and see how things from that era influenced what is avai ...

And this is where is put in a plug for CEDatum. Have them repair your broken stylus so you have a spare. They are great and mine which was totaled cost around $30 if I remember right to get fixed as g ...

Just wanted to give a quick shout out to Rix and his son Chris for my new LD player! Pretty amazing deal for just the cost of shipping Smile

Works perfectly and looks like new even though it has to be cl ...

Glad that this was the kinda pick up you needed for your day. I have been too busy between graduating college and getting into the real world to play on here much. Guess I will just have to sneak on h ...

I would certainly be interested in one. Just recently got into collecting CED's and have been eyeing LD players too. No real preference but the Pioneer models would be top on my list. Guess the best w ...

If it was me I would go hit Goodwill or some other thrift store. They usually have piles of the coax to rca converters for sale. I saw one a couple weeks ago still in the box for $5. I used to have a ...

It is sorta like when I run my Commodore 64 on a VGA monitor. You notice how lo res the picture is compared to a modern computer (even though Commodore bragged about hi-res graphics in 1983 Smile

) Just ...

From what I have read it is darn near impossible to safely clean these discs without causing issues. Unless they are really dirty I find that just playing them a couple times usually knocks the gunk o ...

Oh and I forgot to add that I notice some artifacting on the majority of my discs. I have a CEDatum rebuilt stylus and a restored player. I think that more than not this is just the nature of the beas ...

Sounds to me like some dirt or other wear on the disc. I would think that stylus being worn would cause a more consistent problem than what you are describing. Try playing the disc a couple times and ...

The folks at CEDatum are awesome! I had a great experience with them. I had another issue with my player (FM demodulator chip was bad) they got me the new part and I installed it using their advice an ...

When you remove all the screws on the bottom you have to kinda work the top half of. Setting the load control about 1/2 was in the middle makes it easier. Just take it slow so you don't break anything ...

In my small collection my most rare disc is Fraternity Vacation. Thought it was a part of the Chevy Chase series until I watched it haha

I know that on mine there are a couple fuses on the top main board, I would check those or the actual power switch that is inside the unit. Not sure if those would be the culprit but I would assume th ...

My SFT 100W did the same thing and the issue was the stylus, mine was totaled and I think ran about $30 to repair. The stylus would not advance or anything until I had it rebuilt. If it were me I woul ...

I will put together a list of what I am looking for and get it online then Smile

I will be going on vacation for a couple weeks so once I am back I will work on that.

I agree, I think I have found my preferred seller now. Gonna have to be careful or I will buy too much Laughing

This is just a partial list that I bought from BeetleScott;

The Time Machine
The Forbidden Planet
The Sands of Iwo Jima
Escape from Alcatraz
The Absent Minded Professor
Psycho II
American Gra ...

I just wanted to give a shout out to BeetleScott for the recent sale I did with him! Great seller and added a bunch of great titles to my collection. In less than 2 months I have built my collection f ...

I have an RCA SFT100W that I recently acquired and after fixing it I want to get the best possible results out of it. Has anyone used the conversion kits that give RCA outputs? If so is the picture im ...
