RECORDABLE ‘Laserdisc’ - Sony CRVdisc

Recordable ‘Laserdisc’ wasn’t sold to the public but really did exist and I've got one to show you. This video features Sony CRVdisc - a 12" Recordable Laser Videodisc system designed for professional use. Destined to be thrown away in a skip* but rescued for one last job. Thanks to Dave & Ken on Patreon for their help with this one. Special thanks to Paul for donating (and delivering) the machine and discs. Links to things mentioned: A video about Editdroid - The Lucasfilm editing system which used Laserdiscs as a proxy https://youtu.be/t887NRtAw9o BBC News over the years https://www.desandmick.co.uk/television/news/bbcnews/ Predicted ‘correction’ You might have noticed that the specs for the LVR-5000 show it could record 43,500 stills - whereas in the video I mentioned my LVR-6000 recorded 36,250 stills. Yep both facts are true and accurate. I don’t know why the LVR-6000 recorded fewer stills than its predecessor- but it did. I checked the disc and it only goes up to 36,501 (the first recordable frame is number 1). Real corrections and Addendums. The CRVplayer I mentioned that didn’t sell on eBay wasn’t £15 - it was £25 https://picclick.co.uk/Sony-LVR-6000-LVS-6000-Lazer-disc-recorder-332799452411.html Clarification: As we all know - CD-Rs can be written in multi sessions as long as they aren’t finalised. Here’s a video all about how that ‘Hours of Operation’ meter works https://youtu.be/Cxj399LuX1M If you want to see inside the processor unit - here’s a new tear-down of the 5000 model. https://youtu.be/zVe_SofB7wo ---------------SUBSCRIBE------------------ http://www.youtube.com/user/Techmoan?sub_confirmation=1 -------------Merchandise----------------- https://teespring.com/stores/techmoan-merch -------------SUPPORT--------------- This channel can be supported through Patreon https://www.patreon.com/techmoan *******Patrons usually have early access to videos******* ----------Outro Music----------- Over Time - Vibe Tracks https://youtu.be/VSSswVZSgJw ------Outro Sound Effect------ ThatSFXGuy - https://youtu.be/5M3-ZV5-QDM *A skip is similar to a 'dumpster'.
