CED VideoDisc and Player Discussion

[cathoderaytube]

Hello. I am a new owner of several CED players and an entire library of discs...an elderly woman i know gave me about 8 of her 40 or so players she has hoarded...I picked out all the Stereo ones...and probably over 300 discs...some of which are redundant.

I have read quite a bit about these and understand how they work and am a general electronics enthusiast, however i have never actually owned or messed with any of these until now.

2 of the players i have are SGT200s...one of them comes on,spins and seems to function...but has no picture and the LED display never gets past -- even with an OK stylus that works in another player...i have another older ZenithVP2000 doing the exact same thing. The other SGT200 seems to work fine, except when not playing the video output is scrambled instead of black, and when it plays it only plays in Black & White...again with several different styluses that work in other players..

Id also like to know where i can get new belts/styluses...

The Woman who gave me all this gear, still has about 20-30 players that she wants rid of...I have dibs on the rest of the discs, however im planning to go thru all of them and sort out all the ones that are duplicate or that i have no interest in watching... Most of the players are Brown, non-stereo SST 90s or 75s...i think...but if anybody is in Pennsylvania and wants any of the stuff, im willing to pass along the ladys contact info about the players and give away the rest of the discs after i get what i want out of them.

cool! do yourself a favor! before you put any disc into a player, carefully slide it out of the caddy without touching it and inspect it for any kind of damage! you will thank me later many times discs are stored improperly or become damaged by the player unbeknown to the previous owner ( usually from a worn transfer rod cap in the j/k series players )
