Is COMPOSITE just as good as S-VIDEO when recording from LASERDISC?
Years ago, when I first start watching my laserdiscs, shortly after I also got my first S-VHS VCR, I did lots of experiments using both S-Video and composite connections. The differences out of my VCR were obvious, but there were zero detectable differences between S-Video and composite connections when watching my laserdiscs.
So, from actual tests with my own eyes and my own equipment, I think the information is, in fact, correct. |
didn't know videos on laserdiscs are already composite, anyways I know little about analog systems and I simply don't bother to get my hands on any analog video other than YPbPr/component RGB cuz that's just a lost cause, dot crawl and rainbow are the most evil artifacts imho, even more evil than compression artifacts
and hell, why can't people just take component video and be happy with it. cheap shit like composite and s-video, they need to be destroyed.
to the guy who invented composite video, Fuck You! (and the guy who invented s-video, the guy invented interlacing, the guy invented chroma subsampling, the guy invented limited range, the guy thought 8bpc was enough precision)
