My beautiful new baby, she will love her new home. Giving her a test drive with The Last Starfighter, because clearly they intended somebody watching for the first time in 2023 to do so in 4:3 on tape.

I managed to get a bit of signal from my into the / portable TV...but not a very stable one.

VCR menus came through nice and clear, but as soon as the started playing I got both horizontal and vertical scrolling that I couldn't seem to tune out.

Just wrapping a coax cable around the aerial for now which seems to work for others. Might need to try stripping the cable or something. Any tips, @avavsystems?

The yellow and dark bands are just camera artefacts.

Hey nerds! RoboCop was released in theatres 36 years ago today! This movie fascinated and haunted me. Absolutely stellar cast.

Been bit anoyed that my doesn't like rgb through bnc cables. I need them for my extraon crosspoint. So I have a connected atm, but thinking it be a good idea to have some sort of pc connected to easly stream movies from my server to that TV. I tried composit with a raspberry pi, but it was really not happy, not sure how this is best done.

I just picked up a decent sized Beta lot... and one of the tapes was an ED BETA! I hope there's some actual ED content but looks to be an audio master? I don't know, but I'll play it soon and find out.

Snuck some quick photos while I was home for just a sec - sorry about the poor quality. This is a Vetter Model 3000A PCM Recording Adaptor. This particular unit was originally owned by the University of Alabama at Birmingham, which combined with the research lab equipment focus of the recycler I got it from makes me wonder what this thing was being used for.

The manual is available on IA, linked here:

Are people still storing recordings into git or has some more effective best practice emerged?
Feel like that is a mighty high amount of data for git to store / cc @benoit

On this date 33 years ago, the criminally underrated Gremlins 2, The New Batch opened in theatres! The crazy price of $92.98, and being released in Dec. 1990 at the very end of the days, probably makes this a pretty rare Beta copy.

Thorough cleaning for one of the Beta machines tonight. Buttons were a tad glitchy, let's see if removing the nicotine stains help.
