How to Tell

  • Tapes by this duplicator until mid-1999 had white, dark or yellow printings like this for example:

Example 1:

T-047 107K519 12 2974

THE BERENSTAIN BEARS


Example 2:

116 20000050906 90 4414

SO1 CITY OF ANGELS


Example 3:

092 292S8001S 06 6052

C26 WRONGFULLY ACCUSED


Example 4:

100 292S8003-S 04 1974

D26 T H E A V E N G E R S


However, on some tapes, such as N64: Change the System, Against a Crooked Sky, and A Girl of the Limberlost, the printings just said the title of the film.

  • Tapes by this company had the white screen test pattern with a 1000hz tone at the end. On some copies of Nintendo 64: Change the System, City of Angels, Wrongfully Accused and The Avengers, it was followed by the static roll of death.
  • On copies of City of Angels, Wrongfully Accused, The Avengers and Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me duplicated by this company, there is a notation printed underneath the label that says "MADE IN MEXICO." On a few other tapes, it was printed on the side of the tape.
  • Starting around mid-1999, when the duplicator was acquired by Technicolor, the printings became similar to those of the latter.
  • Until late 1999, shortly after its acquisition by Technicolor, tapes by this duplicator also had the BHCP codes like the ones used by Deluxe from 1987 to 1996.
  • Several tapes printed in Mexico also had a silent white screen at the beginning.
