Does somebody know where I can get the complete season of the DL cartoons on dvd or vhs?? :?
Any info would be great :D
Thanks... :wink:

I have all the episodes on ntsc vhs tapes. I even bought an USA tape player on ebay US to watch them :roll:
My idea is to digitalize them and make them available for download 8)
I also have Space Ace cartoons :wink:
So stay tuned :roll: :P

Will you allow some of us to purchase these copied onto a DVD, especially if we pay for shipping and materials?

Hi Stormyblade,
At the moment, I still not have time to convert the NTSC tapes to DVD :oops:
I'll do it once I'll get more time, and of course, I'll make the files available on this website or send directly DVD on request 8)
Hope to see you around :wink:

Hey guys,
I'm a video editor by profession and I'd like to offer my services :D
I could also make them PAL or keep them NTSC and if you supply material I could add in easter eggs and special features on the DVD.
All I'm after are copies of the episodes 8)
Unsure if you know, but I am the one that finished off MY version of Cliff Hanger
See here: http://www.cliffrestored.zoomshare.com/0.html
Let me know as I am happy to help out in anyway :D

Hi Dexter,
I'm currently on work for the Space Ace cartoons digit :)
As I said, I got from ebay in america a brand new US video tape player, only for playing all the NTSC tapes I have and also an ATI All in Wonder 9800 NTSC version graphic card to digitalyze all of them...
Thanks Dexter for your help anyway :)
My idea is to make all the episodes available here for download. If I have to much trouble to convert them, I'll send to you on DVD the .AVI source files on DVD, and let you arrange all the stuff on DVD ?
I'll let you know asap :)
Thanks also for link this website on your site too :wink:
So stay around 8)

No probs, if I can be of ANY help let me know.
I was going to run the footage via a TBC (Time Base Corrector) and colour correct them if needed (as NTSC can be washed out at times) And have them available for download and on DVD. So like I said, let me know if I can help out in anyway :)
As for the link on my site, no probs at all :P Great site and I LOVE the 'Road Trips' that's just a great attraction to the site.Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing the cartoons, I never got to see Space Ace but I did see a few Dragon's Lair ones (What would you do?)

HI All :roll:
THIS IS IT :lol: :lol: :lol:
As you can see, an episode is now available for download :P
As I said, I have all episodes ( also Space Ace, you'll happy Dexter :wink: ), they will be ALL available here soon, I promise.
Here's the story :roll: :
- Got on ebay US ntsc tapes with all DL & SA episodes more than 3 years ago...
- Got on ebay US last year an NTSC video tapes player/recorder
- Got on ebay US last year 2 NTSC video capture cards
for some reasons, my main capture cart 'ATI All in Wonders 9800' doesn't work for capture anymore :evil: :evil: :evil: , so I've used a cheapest one, an HAUPPAUGE wintv pci...
I captured the episode in the best resolution possible for that cheap card : 720 x 480 in RGB 24 bit in AVI with the application WinTV2000 from hauppauge.
The result file for about 20 minutes of capture give me a ...35 GB file !
Then I used Virtual Dub to compress the AVI file into a DIVX file, with a desinterlace filter to remove the artifcats from interlaced video.
The result is a 124 MB file.
I choose that size file in order to host all the episode on Dragon's Lair Fans website, so I have to make a compromise between quality & size... :roll:

Ummm, maybe I missed it but WHERE can you download/view that first episode?
And...Dexter...any way some of us can get that restored version to replace the original and use it with the Daphne software? If so, how?
-
Ummm, maybe I missed it but WHERE can you download/view that first episode?
Don't worry Stormyblade, you don't miss anything... all the episodes available yet are in the MEDIA - Videos page on the website homepage. Only two available for download yet, but ALL will be available here, I promise :)
On my tapes, the episodes are not in the correct order, so that's the reason why I don't put them in the right order :roll:
Have fun... Space Ace is also coming very soon :roll: :wink:

I am errrr "patiently waiting" for the next two cartoons you said would be posted this week :lol: anyways love the site! Thanks for sharing!

Hope my complete VHS rip done more than FIVE years ago were useful (...and I can tell you YES, regarding the number of download for each episode!).
Now let's see the quality of that DVD and hope they included some bonus...
