With his permission, I have used Timm Doolen's old FAQ as a basis for this FAQ. Doolen's article was again much based upon Bob Niland's very comprehensive articles on laserdisc technology.

Special thanks to Bob Niland (rjn@csn.org), whose work makes up a large portion of this FAQ.

Also thanks to David Uy (duy@unity.ncsu.ed), Phil Kim (kimp@rpi.edu), Michael Gebert (MGMax1919@aol.com), Bill Cruce (wlrc@uhura.neoucom.edu), Ed Weiland (emw107@psuvm.psu.edu), Bob Morris (morris@sce.carleton.ca) and many more who contributed a substantial amount of material and input to this FAQ.

First published 1995-10-01, last changed 1998-04-01 (except page headers 2006-08-10).


The FAQ is divided in four parts In addition, I strongly recommend you read my article, "How Film Is Transferred to Video", which is available at my WWW page http://www.iki.fi/leopold/AV/FilmToVideo/.

Enjoy.
