Id like to dump my laseractive games and other rare laserdisc material.
In theory I believe I can hook up some common players to a computer and get data off of them. My guess would be that I might not be able to get full acess to the disc and may be able to only get at some data tracks here and there. The bigger problem though is that as far as I can tell these players will only communicate through say a parrallel port at a bit rate of 68kbps or in that ballpark.
If the game is huge and they could have a total of say up to 3gigs of info on them.
This would=days to dump a game if no hicups happen during that time.
Well it cant be too simple or else the Daphne team would have allready thought of somthing. Afaik they just capture video for cartoon games. If I could figure somthing out it could open up a whole new world for emulation.
