88,000 frames on a laser disk? It can play a 48 hour animation? What size file per frame ? Sorry, I missed the beginning of this conversation. thnx, Gary

Gary, PMJI……. The disk holds 43,500 frames per side total 87000 frames which equals 24 minutes a side at 30 fps. Might want to recheck your math. Paul

Gary: Paul answered the length, I'm not sure what you mean by "size file per frame"? It is a Beta Component system, with RGB, SVHS, VHS, and Beta in and out. Greg Pyros

Does the frame storage requirement change with resolution, color depth, etc, or am I out in left field? (like my math skills!) thnx, gary

Gary: >> Does the frame storage requirement change with resolution, color depth, >> etc, or am I out in left field? Way out in left field! <g> The laser disk, like any video tape system, is divided into a certain number of frames. Doesn't matter what you put on them, that's how many there are. No compression, color bit depth, etc. makes any difference. Greg Pyros
