RE: filmscanners: Corrupted Photo CD

Larry,

I too have a Photo-CD with problems. It doesn't exhibit the banding problem
you see, but there a couple of files that read only with great difficulty,
and one file that will not read at all. This disk is also a couple of years
old.

So much for Kodak's vaunted 30 year Photo-CD lifespan...

I just had something scary happen. I put in a Kodak Photo CD to demonstrate
how Photoshop allows choice of resolution when opening and discovered that
every image on the disk had corrupting horizontal lines. I hadn't opened
the CD in about two years.

Any thoughts.....

I just created a web page with an example image.
