Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

The LaserDisc – By Bradford Morgan White – Abort Retry Fail
I’m sure you’re aware of the Domesday Duplicator[0] and related projects.
There’s several MegaLD/LDROM² discs that need preservation that I hope I can help with one day.

LaserDiscs Are Dying—Here’s Why That Matters - Electric Literature
This is why the Domesday Duplicator project is so important; an effective 1:1 copy of LaserDiscs, and almost any other analog media you can tap RF maintenance points of (of the playback deck).
It can be done if you’re determined enough.

Due to the positive reception of my last two posts, here's another rare film I digitized and got subtitled in English a while back: Hikari Hayakawa's Evil Heart (1985) (age-restricted video, sadly). Also includes a subtitled making-of documentary.
Also the rips you get from one aren't normal video files. It's like a raw RF log of what the laser is reading. You run the raw data through some code to get a playable video. But the quality is really unmatched, night and day difference. The time is ticking to get "perfect" rips of these LDs, as they've all started to degrade, I wish there were an easier way to do it..
- I want to get digital files of my laserdiscs. What is the best Laserdisc Transfer Service to send my LDs to? Who would you recommend? Who gave you really good results?

donated to me today ..
I have some discs I'm keeping until I get a player and have a go at preserving them (https://github.com/simoninns/DomesdayDuplicator/wiki) but finding a unit where I live is a challenge on itself, nevermind a proper working and maintained one. I have no real interest on them as a collector but do surely appreciate the format.

Thanks for everyone's kind words on the previous upload of Love Massacre (1981). I have corrected the footage to the correct aspect ratio, done some more corrections on subtitling, and it is now available on archive.org as well. Hope you enjoy.
Have you considered using a Domesday Duplicator to digitize your Laserdiscs?

[Talk] possible lost media on lazerdisks?
Just a little bit of info - the Domesday Duplicator was created for this reason - it allows pit-perfect backups of the information contained on Laserdiscs.

Another World Ported to FPGA
For anyone confused by the HDL, it's the authors custom language: https://github.com/sylefeb/Silice/tree/master
It provides a compiler to Verilog that then can be fed to traditional design flows.
