with grooves, making the two systems incompatible. JVC, RCA, and
other firms developing mechanical-type video-disc systems have been
conducting talks, though, trying to establish a compatible standard.
RCA has been buying software and gearing up for marketing its
system, perhaps in 1980.

Subject: In Regard To Previous Anouncements....
The Sears CED player that I previously advertised here is now resting in
a trash heap somewhere. I couldn't get it to work and got really fed up
with it..... It was at a point where it wouldn't play any disks.... So I
TRASHED it!! Oh.... I also recently just bought a Stereo RCA CED player
for $60. It came with a wireless remote and five movies. I found it at a
resale shop. It's in mint condition and works Beautifully.....
STEREO CED Note:
I have the movie "Saturday Night Fever" in stereo. At the beginning of this
movie, the left channel goes completely dead for about 30 seconds and
then comes back. Does anyone else have this movie and the same
problem?? The movie music also changes tempo at times.... It plays the
same on both players I have. Is this a mastering problem???
Washing CED's
I agree with Tom Howe on the Distilled water issue for rinsing. I also
agree that this should only be done when a CED works improperly or is
covered in fingerprints or mud.
Tom Had a CED in his car??? Sheesh Tom..... you must be as much of a
CED junkie as I am.... I thought I was bad..... I pick them up everywhere!!!
However, I am getting more picky about what movies I purchase....
As far as CED's deteriorating from washing, I don't know if this
happens... However, I will let everyone know the death date of the
"Benji" CED that I washed.... if it does deteriorate.
More Later......
Dave.
