[Videolib] Writing on Double Sided DVDs?

[Videolib] Copyright waived on Bolivian film?
Anyone know about this? A faculty member is asking us to stream this film for his course and says that the copyright was waived by the director at the time of its distribution. We don't even own a copy: The film is titled 'Yawar mallku Sangre del condor = Blood of the condor', directed by Jorge Sanjinés in 1969. The copyright has been waived on this title. Sanjines mailed out the film in order to save it from the destruction by the Bolivian government. I believe that if you request an ILL, you will see that the borrowed dvd has no copyright claim. That is why there is no vendor. Something you might check out for this very important piece of cinema.

Re: [Videolib] Copyright waived on Bolivian film?
I don't exactly by this story that he mailed it out and waived the copyright. First off he would have to own the copyright to waive it, most directors don't own their films. Kind of like when Michael Moore said he thought people should just illegally download SICKO which did not endear him to the Weinsteins. It is possible the director owned the copyright, but not that likely on a fiction film. IMDB shows the film had some kind of theatrical release in 1973 by a mostly exploitation company called Tricontinental Film Center. Presumably somebody sold them the rights. The key really is if Tricontinental ever bothered to copyright it in the US.You should be able to check this at Library of Congress. Now even if they did not in theory it could be retroactively copyrighted by the original rights holder, but until they do it would be fair game. Basically I would see if it was ever copyrighted in the US and proceed from there. On Mon, Apr 4, 2011 at 11:48 AM, Brewer, Michael brew...@u.library.arizona.edu wrote: Anyone know about this?

Re: [Videolib] Writing on Double Sided DVDs?
We have been using hub labels for several years without any problems. We print our library's name and the item's barcode # on them. Hope this helps, Gail On 4/4/2011 10:46 AM, Seay, Jared Alexander wrote: Thanks for the input. We know about the label rings. Our catalogers are reluctant to put stickers on our DVD's because we used to have all kinds of trouble with stickers on our CD's. They tended to cause the CD to become jammed in the player. Perhaps stickers and players are better these days. This was in the late 90's as I recall. Since we are creating a collection for student circulation, we are more keen to label our DVD disks themselves, which we have not done in the past.

Re: [Videolib] Copyright waived on Bolivian film?
Here's the information on the differences between GATT and the Berne Convention herehttp://depts.washington.edu/uwcopy/Copyright_Law/International_Copyright_Law/Key.php but the answer is that as a signatory, yes, absolutely, the film would become retroactively copyrighted in the US even if Tricontinental do not do so on first release. The director could own the rights if he either paid for it or like in France, the director is considered the auteur (and that's something I don't understand totally) by the country's copyright code. But Michael's right, it still is probably under copyright in the US even if no one claims ownership. (Hence the term that started in the 1990s, orphan films.) It was a New Yorker Title after they inherited the Tricontinental collection so maybe they will remember the director's story. Now, if the director legitimately owns it and claims no rights to it, then I see no reason to not use the film as the director has wished. But I'd really like to see first-person documentation on this. Jessica's right about it sounding strange -- there have been many cases where directors have smuggled their films out of their country but I can't think of any where the director gave up his rights.

Re: [Videolib] bootleg
It's intriguing in that it doesn't really look like a bootleg - with all the subtitle options and it being NTSC Region 1. It's for sale nowhere else so I'd imagine it's a legit screener for film festival/Academy Awards use. On Mon, Apr 4, 2011 at 3:39 PM, Sarah E.

Re: [Videolib] bootleg
I did not have to get past the $9.95 price, the NTSC format and that the seller is in China to know that yes it is a bootleg. Pretty much anything and everything from Asia on eBay is a bootleg. It appears to be a film that probably had no US release but is certainly owned by some company. Again rule of thumb is that any DVD from Asia on eBay is almost surely a bootleg. There are sellers in Europe, Australia etc who sell legit titles not sold in the US, but they are nearly always PAL and cost $20 on up. On Mon, Apr 4, 2011 at 3:39 PM, Sarah E.

Re: [Videolib] bootleg
no Chris , trust me you can find almost any title from Asia. You can buy GONE WITH THE WIND for $5.00 and it looks a bit legit. It is the Wild West in terms of selling illegal anything. Think of it as a knock off Coach bag. Rule of thumb if the only source you see for a film is A. eBay. B some website you never heard off that offers rare videos than it is an illegal copy. However per previous emails you can find some legit imports on eBay from Europe but in most cases you can find the same titles on various Amazon sits in Europe.

Oops didn't notice it was from Macau. I suspect Jessica's right.
