    The music is "Three-Quarters-Ville" by Roger Webb, from the Chappell music library (C.985A, also on the LP Light Atmosphere Volume 2 (Small Group) - 1967)

      Aparentemente, não existe outra gravação desta música disponível na internet. A música "Three-Quarters-Ville" só está presente no UA-cam dentro deste vídeo, resumida a um tímido trecho. Bem, espero poder encontrar alguma pessoa que tenha a sorte de gravar o álbum "Chappell - LPC 985-990" e pôr na web. Quando encontrar trago à vocês aqui. Obrigado

    I'm assuming the original tape doesn't exist anymore and this is the only known copy.
    Which is a shame because things like the aurora converter exist that can directly convert 405 line video to something that your capture card can understand.

      @@Aeonterbor Clearly both people have misunderstood me, as I was referring to *this* specific recording, and *NOT* the BBC graphics in general.
      The description clearly says he filmed a 625 line TV's screen with a 405 line camera, and recorded it to this tape.
      Then, in 2007/8, he played back the 405 line tape into a 405 line TV, and filmed the screen with a modern camera. He uploaded the results.
      Today, if the 405 line tape still existed, it would be possible to directly capture the raw 405 line signal (with an SDR) and save it on a computer. Software could convert the raw signal capture into a 377i video with much higher quality than filming a screen ever could.

    It Says Colour Underneath The BBC Two Symbol, Even Though The Video Isn’t In Colour. Looks Like Some People Just Couldn’t Afford A Colour Camera To Film Colour TV.

    • @videorestore2
      @videorestore2  5 років тому +6

      That is right. But the second problem: color TV's didn't have video outputs to connect to the VTR. The VTR didn't have a build in tuner and was B&W only.

    From 1967 to 1969, it stayed static, in 1969-1972 the dots were in white and blue, red, green and finally white 2 was rotating. In Circa 1972, there was a change to the BBC2 ident. in 1973, the background changed to blue, the Colour legend changed to Cyan, in Autumn 1974, the 2 was dark blue, and the Colour legend converted to white.

    • @mbvideoselection
      @mbvideoselection 4 роки тому +1

      Almost. Nov 69-Oct 71 ident was on film and had the 2 in different colours but all with the spot in white. And to clarify that from Jul 67-Nov 69 the only reason the 2 was static was because it was still the old fat 2 logo at that point as used for black-and-white, but with key colours added, as happened to all the supposedly "black and white" captions at the time so people who didn't have a colour set simply wouldn't know.

    From information gathered from the BBC Programme Index at the Genome Archive, I've deduced that this was originally broadcast on 17 October 1973, the first part recorded at approx. 7.00 pm and the second part some thirty minutes later.

    I did notice a few similarities between the BBC2 logo as in use then and that for Oakland/San Francisco station KTVU as also used at the time. The only difference was that KTVU, to my knowledge, didn't have the "dot" in the top part of the "2" logo.

    @videorestore2 Maybe try pointing a huge (like the size of your 377i TV) lens at the TV, and recording the result. Then deinterlace Yadif. It will look much better than another cnversion. Make sure you zoom in to slightly overscan it.

    I don't think they had a video output even later on, at least not til recently. VCRs and DVD recorders have always had their own signal receivers for broadcasting.

      BBC2 was always 625 line, even on day 1. While there were experiments in 405-line NTSC colour in the 60s, they were never broadcast on BBC2. BBC1 broadcast colour films on the BBC1 405 line service in the 60s to see if their own transmitters and monitors could broadcast and pick them up properly- but gave up on the idea of an NTSC service as it depended on 60 Hz electric grid frequency and gave a low picture quality that would make it difficult to export videotaped programmes in future decades. PAL was only ever 625 line, broadcast on UHF and at the same standard as all other PAL countries.
