CED VideoDisc and Player Discussion

Hello everyone! This is the announcement of the 2026 CED Workshop. It will be held at the IVY Tech Community College Plainfield Satellite Location at 1610 Reeves Road in Plainfield, IN 46168 on June 2 ...

I am not aware of anyone who has tried that. I have no idea if it would work or not. I have quite a few styli that have corrosion on the fly leads. If not for that, they would work. But I am not sure ...

I am selling mystery boxes of discs. Here is the info if you would like to purchase any. Thanks.

I know a couple people who may be able to explain it to you. The first guy I know actually contacted me out of the blue one day and said he was hired to preserve a CED in the finest quality possible. ...

Have I got good news for you, lol. Sorta.

So I have a copy of the final master list from Bob Huck, the 2nd half of the list has every title as well as all the info about each title. I created a spr ...

I just wanted to make a mention of this that Tom got ahold of several of these discs and was generous enough to send them to me to give away at the workshop this year. If you would like the informatio ...

Hello all, we are drawing ever closer to the CED workshop, 6 days now, as I post this. The workshop is June 28th 2025 at the Hampton Inn in Avon, IN at 10am. It is a free workshop if anyone wants to a ...

This seems very similar to the Doomsday Project that was being discussed on the Facebook page. Apparently they have made a device for Laserdisc and VHS that connect directly to the RF output on the pl ...

I added a page to the CEDatum website for Remote Control information. It took a few hours, mostly to edit the pictures. But there are a few more pictures I would like to post but I don't have images f ...

That's some great research, and Happy Anniversary to CED! I will have to take a closer look at all of these later. I was thinking the other day, it would be nice to compile a list/collection of all th ...

I just want to say thank you to both Tom Howe and Nick Higgins for getting this forum back up and running. I know there's not a lot of folks who use it but it's nice to pop in once in a while and chec ...

Yes it was the same as the blank white one you posted. Just handwritten on the sleeve. Can't wait to see what your new addition is.

I just talked to Ryan and he's going to bring them to the workshop in a couple weeks so I will get a few from him, or whatever he has and send you one when I get home.

I saw these listings, I didn't bid on either one because I figured they would go for crazy money. I did contact the seller though to try to find out more information about how he obtained them and if ...

Hello All,

I must apologize for the inconvenience but I was unable to reserve the conference room at the Wingate by Wyndham on Rockville Road where the workshop is usually held. Instead, I was able ...

Hello,

Josh here with CEDatum. So the composite video board mod you speak of does exist. John had several of the kits made up and I think Ryan Garner was the one who made them for him, coincidentall ...

Good information lynx,

I also offer all the same belts as well as many other CED parts and supplies. I sell my belts cheaper as well. Feel free to check them out and let me know if you need anything. ...

New Styli for sure. I've exhausted pretty much every resource regarding rebuilding or new manufacture of styli. Keep in mind RCA spent millions on R&D of styli and their manufacture. There was spe ...

I don't get to my emails every day but a week and half is extreme, are you sure you have the email right? videodiscjunkie@gmail.com

cedatum.com has any part you could want. I have dozens of parted out players. Just let me know what you need. Thanks.

On the back of the player there is a small hole with a set screw inside. This will adjust the point where the stylus sets down. It appears to be setting down too early on a non-playable portion of the ...

That's very true. We are already seeing that with Stylus. Not more than 3 or 4 years ago John used to rebuild them, you could get one for $30 to $40. But now they can't be rebuilt and all that exists ...

I would message the seller. I purchased one and they emailed me afterwords saying they had many in stock if I wished to place a bulk order. I'd be very surprised if they are sold out.

I would assume that it's the Video Demodulator. You can order a new one here, but I have not tested it yet.

If you purchase this and try it, please let me know ...

Not sure if anyone saw but another sealed copy of this just sold for $316 on eBay. I would have to say, of all the rare discs, for some reason this one seems to be the most common. Which is odd to me ...

I didn't realize this was a new stylus, it could just be the tension on your stylus is to too light and the needle is jumping around. From what John Greves has said you can adjust the tension by press ...

Thanks for the upload Jesse. So I saw at about the 3:40 mark on the first video it showed Newark on the wall next to the stage. So I Googled Avon Newark and apparently they had a large office/distribu ...

I got your email, thanks. So both of those titles are interactive titles. Meaning they are banded for use on a J/K 400 CED player. They would play a short video clip and then display options (bands yo ...

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up that Facebook has blocked my account for some reason. No reason was given and no time frame provided so not sure how long it will last. So I am unable to respon ...

The site is coming along. Orders have been coming in and going out and I have updated the site quite a bit. Check it out when you have time.
