[comp.ivideodisc] SONY LD1000 <-> MAC

delingma@THUNDER.LAKEHEADU.CA (09/27/90)

Hi. I recently picked up a SONY LD1000 videodisc player
ata  government surplus sale. Unfortunately, it did not come with
any manuals or the control section, which is a remote type toy.
If any one can give me any tips on hooking this beast up to
my Mac Plus (It has an rs232 port on the back and a switch labeled
"ext/int CPU") I would be very grateful. I have a hypercard
stack from apple (laserdisc made easy or something like that)
but it only goes back to the Sony 1500. I also am not sure as
to the exact cable set up. If you know
anything about doing this, or about the 1000, or how compatible
it is with the 1500/2000 let me know. Also, if there is a
"standard" format for the connector cable, That would be very useful
as well.


Thanks.

You might want to give VideoLogic in Boston (?) Ma a call.  They used to
do all sorts of stuff with these.
