After much fretting, I've decided to get a laserdisc player. I looked at the helpful Laserdisc FAQ that's archived, but I still have a question or two.
First, if I can't look at the player , how can I tell if it has the ability to do Dolby Digital? Also, if it's not hooked up to a Dolby Digital receiver, will it downconvert like DVD?
Also, I'm looking at an extremely low end player to dip my toes in the water. I also want something that can just be plugged and played. Doesn't matter if it's S-video or A/V cables. I read the FAQ talking about Demodulaters and stuff, and I don't want to get a player that needs parts before I play it.
Finally, what about the Pioneer CLD-S104? What players should I absolutely avoid?
Thanks.
