More info?)
i have several of these, and even more more of the CD-V discs, which give
you one or two A/V laserdisc tracks with great stereo audio, and a few more
audio tracks of CDV music audio the same size as ordinary CD's, but gold in
color, and you can easily see where one format starts and the other leaves
off.. $15 @, or 8 for $100 with shipping on me, insurance also on me---- mix
or match. alot of the discs both format had rot, not applicable to
digital-only sound.
good quality laserdisc means just that in video, and PCM for the audio,
earlier in stereo, and later in dolby surround, then ac-3, then DTS. the
soundstage presented by an ac-3 laserdisc, to say nothing of DTS, lays flat
waste to any DVD equivelant. at the same time, only the finest DVD pressings
can remotely rival the video image quality of the correspondent laserdiscs,
this spoken from both the cinema and mind of one whose collection well
exceeds 3000 titiles, and owns the best of both; my A/V system is also
"money no option," using a runco ljrII as the refrence laserdisc player, and
a theatris convergence C3 video server for compact disc: this machine being
the finest dvd unit ever conceived and developed-- it is capable of 1080p
with no further signal processing once the natural digital video signal
leaves the machine en route to the display. this magnificent DVD player,
which owes its fantastic level of performance to a grand series of
quadrilatterally interpolated metholodogies that all the desired
sub-scripted transcriptases, to be properly presented as a re-interpretation
of the initial datat stream, constitutes nothing short of a miracle.
so much for the sound---- video images laserdiscs produce are the simple
product of a frequency modulated form, with one laser beam striking the
surface of the disc as a pilot, and a second being read as a relatively
differential protocol, generating a precise wave form, as the disc rotates,
and creates a specific electronic signature as to what is happening, on a
continual basis, as the disc continues to rotate, and the data stream it
provides continues.
from here, we enter the differential calculus.
du/dx = a co-effintially delineated variable of any point, {X} as the discus
is rotating. "u is to x " define the nonlinear curve, and/or the vector it
represents, become parts of the equation as the variables change. the time
axis itself consists of two constituents, one constant, and the other
variable.
we now have to delinealte the rotation of this disc in question, and
determine whether or not it has a constant angular velocity or constant
linear velocity relative to any point [X] upon is surface.sorry too tired to
go on read steven hawking-- he kmpws alot more about this stuff that i do
goodnight
