Talk about VHS tapes.

NOW!

Be kind, rewind!

shrek 3 seems a bit late for a VHS release, doesn't it? when did they stop making VHS releases?
I don't really fondly remember tapes because I surely had a cheap, shitty VHS tape. The tracking and fuzziness is what I remember
>>
you are right. it is a bit late. It was a very limited release and only in korea. Im pretty sure it was exclusive to video stores.
>>
>>107872012
Best left in the dustbin of history.

>>107872012
SP is where its at but stuck to SLP for max time storage
>>
>>107872121 The tape of Shrek the Third or VHS as a format?

I like how VHS-C is fully compatible in a normal VCR with one of these adapters. Far more convenient especially when digitizing old tapes
>>
My grandpa was gonna donate all of his VHS tapes before I caught him and asked if I could have them. Now I have 50+ tapes, not including my own collection.
>>
I like them more than DVD because you can fastforward the ads
>>
>>107872012
I have four vcr's.
Just spent more than a month digitizing a bunch of important tapes to lagarith lossless. I still need to process them to something compressed, de-interlaced, 4:3 aspect ratio, and 59.94 fps.

Zoomers are literally scared to death of these things. Not talking about old tech filtering them, I'm talking like watching a horror movie scared.

Don't ask me why but coontube is packed to the brim with such retardation.
>>
everytime i put a vhs tape in my vcr and get the scart cable to finally work properly after 2 minutes of tinkering, i feel like i've cast a forbidden spell. You can't get that with dvds
>>
>>107872963
if Cigarette ever becomes a name, the male version should be Fag.
>>
also i think you should rip it and make it available to the public. You can also sell the tape after. It will have lost most of it's value but some collector might want the original copy.
>>
>>107872953
>deinterlacing
Just encode with MBAFF TFF and keep the fields separate, let the player handle the deinterlacing later. That way, you don't have to stress about picking the wrong deinterlacing algorithm for your content in a completely irreversible and destructive compression process.
>>
>>107873108
The player de-interlaces the same way but in real time, slower systems might struggle to play the video.
I'm keeping the lagarith files as masters. I just need smaller files that someone who doesn't understand this stuff as well can just click and watch. That means correcting the aspect ratio, de-interlacing, and doubling the framerate to give the VHS smoothness back.
I've been experimenting using Hybrid different methods. I'm leaning towards a yadif method since qtgmc (which is super hyped up) over processes and has a million different settings.

we just called them tapes or video tapes, zoomzoom

They were complete garbage, I'm glad they are dead.

>>107872989
Are you really gonna pretend like stuff like The Blair Witch Project didn't exist you dumb fucking millenial?
>>
>>107872012
wish i still had my bambi vhs from when i was little
still my favorite movie
>>
>>107872963
I already own Project A-ko, thanks anyway bro.
>>
>>107872989
tbf there's few things more anxiety inducing than discovering an unmarked VHS among a late loved one's possessions. is this a tape of you being born? a recording of a vacation you were too young to remember, or of an important early moment? or are you gonna get a face full of your nude mother in her prime taking an olympic-grade jackhammering from dear old dad?
>>
>>107876895
BWP was found footage, The Ring is a better example of VHS as horror fodder
>>
>>107877076
But in that case, wouldn't they also be scared of dvds, laserdiscs and other physical video formats?
>>

>I don't really fondly remember tapes because I surely had a cheap, shitty VHS tape.
good morning, sir!

>>107877087
for me, it's picrel

lmao

I don't understand why this idiot thinks that zoomers are afraid of the medium itself.
