In this new twist on an old Mark Twain yarn, NASA scientist Dennis Dugan and his

robot clone are whisked back in time to the days of King Arthur (Kenneth More).

After performing several acts of "sorcery" with the state-of-the-art

paraphernalia at his disposal, Dugan incurs the wrath of in-house magician

Merlin (Ron Moody). Jim Dale costars as the most hyperkinetic Sir Mordred that

you're ever likely too see. Previous versions of Twain's Connecticut Yankee in

King Arthur's Court were filmed in 1921, 1931 and 1948; Spaceman in King

Arthur's Court would be followed by an early-1990s TV adaptation of Connecticut

Yankee starring The Cosby Show's Keshia Knight Pulliam, and by Disney's 1995

theatrical feature, A Kid in King Arthur's Court. (allmovie)CAST

This is intended to be played on a PC or a HTPC. If it works on your standalone

player, good for you. You can always convert it to a regular DVD using tools

as ConvertXtoDVD.



Size has been calculated in order to get the optimum PQ without oversizing the

file, hence the irregular size of the file (not the usual 700Mb/1.4Gb rip).

A rate of Bits/(Pixel*Frame) around 0.3 is perfect, above that point, picture

quality becomes virtually the same to the original source.



Check you have installed the right codecs, as listed in this .nfo file, before

trying to play it. VLC will play this file without having to install any codec.



If you don't like the codec(s), container, resolution, file size, languages or

any technical aspect on this rip, keep it to yourself and go and do your own.



Serious feedback on quality will always be welcome.
