I remember back in the LD days that there were certain players that could read both sides of a LD. Complicated system of mirrors, IIRC. Never saw one, though.


I took a film class in highschool, and the instructor used one of these. It seemed like quite a feat to turn the laserdisc "over" while still in the machine. I always wondered if they had two read heads, or if it was something else. It definitly wasn't seamless though, as the changeover took five or ten secconds.
