Author Topic: Modern B&W sound tracks Jeremy Weigel Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1062 From: Edmond, OK, USA Registered: Mar 2007 posted 02-03-2010 05:29 PM                     quote: Carsten Kurz One cinema actually got one of the B/W prints - with a very faint, unusable SR and SRD track. The image had proper dark blacks. Our print of "Bandits" came in with a SRD and SDDS tracks that look like those in your pic. I actually kept a frame, because it was so odd to me. It is still the only print that I have seen like this. Both digital tracks did work though.  |  IP: Logged Mitchell Dvoskin Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1869 From: West Milford, NJ, USA Registered: Jan 2001 posted 02-03-2010 05:37 PM                     quote: Jonathan Smith Silver doesn't work well with red LED lamps Totally not true. Red readers work fine with silvered tracks. The only silvered tracks that have an issue with Red readers are magenta density tracks, either because it is an old print that faded to red, or a reprint in high magenta. Variable area tracks play fine, as do density tracks that are black & white.  |  IP: Logged Ian Parfrey Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1049 From: Imbil Australia 26 deg 27' 42.66" S 152 deg 42' 23.40" E Registered: Feb 2009 posted 02-03-2010 06:26 PM                     Mitchell.
