GENERAL
Programmes are held in their original format (eg colour, stereo
sound). Discrepancies have been noted where known. I try to collect the
footage in mint condition and complete as possible so most of the recordings
are first-generation DVD. A few are second-gen, even fewer are worse from other trades,
so please note that the condition
of the programmes may vary, with some of the programmes will cut off
suddenly at the end or the beginning may be missing. Most of the programmes are
in NTSC format with some of the programmes are PAL format. Some DVDs
maybe off-air recordings, in which case maybe clean without a logo on the
corner of the screen. A lot of the programmes are recorded in standard play
(SP), A few programmes are recorded in different modes, including long play (LP), EP (Extended Play) or
SLP (Super Long Play) which may take a bit of the quality. Several programmes/Movies are recorded in widescreen (presented in a
"Letterboxed" format). All DVDs are Region Free and will
be recorded/copied on to a high quality DVD+R disc (TDK, Sony,
Verbatim, etc). Depending on the original DVD, I can do identical DVD copy (DVD-rip)
keeping the original warning logos, special features, menus,etc as
long the DVD is Regional Free (R"0"), DVD5 (single layered 4.7GB)
disc and "Copy Protection" free. The movies in this list are sourced from official DVD, VHS, Laserdisc, and "off-air" TV recordings. A lot of these movies may include another movie(s). The "off-air" TV broadcast recordings may have some advert breaks and channel logos. Most of the movies (if not all) are clean without a logo on the corner of the screen and presented in their original screen aspect ratio (e.g.: widescreen ("Letterboxed") format). Also there are "workprint" and "Fan Edit/custom" versions. "Workprint" is a rough version of a motion picture, used by the film editor(s) during the editing process, such as original recorded sound that will later be re-dubbed, stock footage as placeholders for missing shots or special effects, or animation tests for in-production animated
shots/sequences. "Fan edit" is a version of a film modified by a viewer, that removes, records or adds material in order to create a new interpretation of the film, this may include the removal of scenes or dialogue, replacement of audio and/or visual elements, and adding material from different sources.
