Re: [Videolib] region-free players-shhhhh
I am now aware they were ever considered illicit, but I am not always in the loop on tech stuff. Dumb question though, don't you mean a multi-system player? I assume that if a DVD is say region 3, the player is simply able to play most or all different regions. I thought region free referred to discs that could play on any player. I would consider such players essential for ANY school, in fact several would be a good idea.

Re: [Videolib] region-free players-shhhhh
Hi I think this is a very gray area of international law. I'm not aware of any contractual stipulation (at least for the hundreds of out-of-region 1 discs we've purchased) that mandate anything about players. This most certainly IS NOT a copyright issue. The one big fly in the ointment re purchasing code free players is that while the seller may offer a short-term warranty, the manufacturer's warranty is almost uniformly voided...(the reason is that code free players are always after-market modifications...they're not sold directly by the big manufacturers--Sony, JVC, Panasonic, et al.) The whole thing is more than a little nuts. gary handman I am now aware they were ever considered illicit, but I am not always in the loop on tech stuff.

Re: [Videolib] region-free players-shhhhh
In the 2003 rulemaking of the Librarian of Congress, http://www.copyright.gov/1201/docs/registers-recommendation.pdf the comment was that It is uncontested that merely watching a lawfully obtained copy of a non-region 1 DVD is a noninfringing use BUT Persons with multi-region players are able to watch non-region 1 DVDs, but multi-region players appear to violate the prohibition on circumvention. They are, however, widely available in the online marketplace, and there is no indication that copyright owners or others have made any efforts to stop their distribution or use. Persons who use multi-region players to watch non-region 1 DVDs probably would be circumventing a technological protection measure that prevents access. The preferred method for playback of a non-region 1 DVD, says the argument, is a computer DVD drive, which can play the disc without circumvention. So far as I know this still stands. This is fine for an individual who wants to play European or Latin American DVDs and can dedicate a computer drive to that, but not so good for libraries and language labs. However, ALL the 2003 comments were by individuals who wanted to play one other region. To address another comment on this thread-it has never been illegal (just problematic) to play back PAL or SECAM (foreign standard) video. Some weeks ago, someone posted on Media-L a link to this vendor of combo units. http://www.220-electronics.com/dvd/combo.htm Judy Shoaf VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions.

Re: [Videolib] PayPal
This happened to me in the past, and I ended up just creating a new account with a slightly different login. It seemed to be okay that my e-mail was the same. Unfortunately, our Purchasing Department has recently made to decision to forbid our use of PayPal for institutional credit card purchases, which has definitely created some additional hurdles in acquiring materials for the library.

Re: [Videolib] PayPal
Sadly this is one of the most evil things about paypal and I don't know anyway around EXCEPT if you can create a 2nd and new account and use it till it expires. It is really easy to set up an account with a slightly different name but does the Univ have a card with a different #? If paypal is totally crucial you can do what I did though I am not sure it would work for a Univ, but i might. I went to my bank and told them I wanted to open a 2nd account and put in $100. Since I am sure you are major account I imagine the schools bank would permit this, then you link THAT with Paypal account. Now if you can pull this off you must be VERY careful when you buy. Scummy Paypal makes you take TWO extra steps to use the credit card instead of taking it from that bank account. Make a mistake and you can overdraw the account (though in your case I am sure they would understand) Basically despite selling themselves as a way to safely use your CC on line Paypal does whatever possible to force you to use a bank account so they can keep they extra 3% or more.

Re: [Videolib] PayPal
FYI I really would NOT use the bank account. You have ZERO protection. In order to join eBay you agree to basically let them decide ANY dispute and they are notorious about this though usually bad to sellers. If you use your bank account you are giving them 3% extra profit they don't deserve and all the power. If you use a CC and have a problem you can go to them directly to resolve it.

Re: [Videolib] region-free players-shhhhh
And not that I have one (because I actually have two) but I would suggest the modified Oppo that plays all regions of BluRay *and* DVD (universal BluRay players aren't necessarily all-region for DVDs). It's a solid machine that is very impressive technically, especially the higher-end models. I have the lower-end BDP-83 model and that's still exceptional. I'm still of the strong opinion that there are enough films that deserve to be shown on BluRay (Tree of Life, anybody?) that a college/university should have at least one system. Otherwise, it's like badly transferring beat-up 16mm prints to VHS and showing them to students who have mortgaged their future by taking out student loans to pay $50,000 a year tuition. Now, I'm in trouble! ;-) -- Best regards, Dennis Doros Milestone Film Video/Milliarium Zero PO Box 128 Harrington Park, NJ 07640 Phone: 201-767-3117 Fax: 201-767-3035 email: milefi...@gmail.com www.milestonefilms.com www.comebackafrica.com www.yougottomove.com www.ontheboweryfilm.com www.arayafilm.com www.exilesfilm.com www.wordisoutmovie.com www.killerofsheep.com http://www.killerofsheep.com AMIA Austin 2011: www.amianet.org Join Milestone Film on Facebook!

Sadly, Sheldon Rochlin of Mystic Fire died many years ago and the company was sold and then disolved shortly thereafter. I think you're better off finding out if the late director Allan Francovich has any descendants.

[Videolib] Question about Latin American and Spanish Films
Dear All, I am new to this listserv and have an immediate, specific question. I am trying to find a source that has films from Latin America or Spain which our academic library can buy which will include the Public Performance Rights. I have looked at the Kino International catalog but it seems they have a very limited number of titles from this region. Can anyone recommend another source that would have more titles from this region that would include the PPR? Many thanks for your assistance in advance. Feel free to contact me off-list.

Re: [Videolib] Question about Latin American and Spanish Films
Hi Natalia There are a number of ok (altho not great) sources of films from Latin America and Spain, but virtually none of these will be able to sell you PPR. FACETS in Chicago is a good place to start for domestically distributed international cinema (www.facets.org) (most of the titles in this catalog are also available via amazon) If you're looking for international cinema not generally available from US distributors (i.e. out of region works), you might try daaveedee.com or amazon uk Again...not with PPR. PPRs for Latin American and European films are going to be VERY difficult to secure, generally. I just cruised around the Swank catalog (always a good place to start for PPR searches) and there's almost nothing...
