I detect no small bit of snark coming from Smit here, so I think now would be a good time for me to post my manifesto on Laserdisc dumping that I wrote last night.
Here's a link to it, I would strongly suggest reading the whole thing rather than just TL;DR'ing out after a paragraph and a half. It's informative and explains a lot of the current issues associated with Laserdisc dumping: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/Moogl...7/gistfile1.txt
The long and short of it is that the current methods for dumping Laserdiscs are hacky and inefficient. People have shown their abilities in the form of being able to dump even the most brutally-protected MCUs, so what I want is to get people excited for the possibility that it should be possible to dump Laserdiscs in a similarly "ultimate accuracy" context. There are capable people associated with MAME, I would encourage them to stand up and make themselves known.
