- Walking today led me to find yet another Toshiba 13" CRT TV. This one is a TV/VCR combination from 2001, which works perfectly despite a missing tape door and being left out in the rain.
EDIT: I've added a tape door from another Toshiba combo I EOL'd. The spring snapped off in the process, so the flap won't slam down upon removing a tape, but a loose door is better than no door.
This dude was wayyyyy ahead of his time. Recording his video play, then Broadcasting over the internet! Damn, I’ll love to shake this guys hand.
I need to get my hands on one of these awesome crt tvs for my retro gaming needs. All I got are new tvs.
+TheCrimsonDuelist Check any thrift store, flea market, garage sale, etc. They should be pretty easy to find and relatively cheap.
This makes me think of my childhood Toshiba TV that I currently own for watching old VHS tapes/playing classic game systems. I will never get rid of this TV because I bought it with my own money when I was 11 years which was a big deal at that time.
+Michael Pierce That TV is a 1999/2000 model.
It was $256.00 new back in 1999.
Some people just don't know what they're throwing away...
Not that every CRT is great, I've ran into some bad ones myself.
Very nice TV man!
I have that same tv, or least it looks identical. Got it at a thrift store for $12. Looks like it was almost never used before :)
My ps2 would look smooth on there
Wow. I like how we found similar sets at nearly the same time! You should probably put model number and the full date in the description.
i have two of these i have a very small one it is in ruff shape but still have it because its very nostalgic i have had it since 2001. Now i also have one that has a bigger screen in excellent condition. my first one is the exact same one as the one you show.
I found a Toshiba TV with built in VCR in a trash room in my apartment building but I took it in and clean it up works good
This is a good vcr combo tv
I have wanted a crt/vhs tv from the early 2000s
I found a TV/DVD player too! Works like a charm too! I posted a video of it last night.
I used to do that, but not anymore. I found mine on June 30th!
Exactly! Which is why I take this stuff.
This guy is pretty cool
I found mine last Monday. This Monday I found a Sanyo TV and a Zenith VCR with 4 blank (2 still sealed) tapes! Not sure if you saw that video yet, but it's on my channel.
Nice!
Cool!
Hey I have this same model TV and I was wondering, does the record feature really work? I have not found much info on it lately.
Funny, I took apart 2 of these to make repairs to the VCR, but forgot to film either. :/
However, I did notice one thing: the construction of this TV is a lot more service-friendly than my 2003 Toshiba combo that was EOL'd. The 2003 Toshiba has the picture tube hardwired into the chassis, while this one has plugs that let you remove the cables if needed.The VCR mechanism is also higher quality in this one, with more metal parts and less corners cut. Amazing at the quality change in just 2 years.
Can the VCR be adapted to another television?
@@JesusDonjuan With some good soldering skills/wiring skills possibly, but not easily.
@@SebisRandomTech Ok thanks, so I'll leave it I don't want to break it down
It's the same as any Toshiba from that time period. Plus taking the picture tube out is a nightmare.
i have a 1998 toshiba 27" crt tv and i need a remote for it .... and i want to connect it to my ASUS C300 chromebook flip ..... let me know if you have info, Thank You
Exactly.
Hola, escribo desde colombia, existe la posibilidad de realizar la configuración del brillo y demás para ese TV? Tengo uno mismo pero no cuento con el control y la imagen se ve oscura
Do you new the resolution/number of scan lines? Just picked one up and wanted some more info.
I make the videos the same day I find them. And I will get to adding the model numbers later tonight or tomorrow.
oh did you play mega man 6
Hey do you know how to fix the flap. I have mine it just fell out?
You still like the CRT TV's better than the modern TV's? I had a small flat screen Emerson TV, and it cut out while I was playing a video game, the TV was manufactured in 2011 and died in 2019.
I still do. I use an LCD for modern games/PC games, but for retro gaming I still use a CRT. My family has a 1989 RCA ColorTrac 2000 that has seen daily use since then, and it still works flawlessly. Never has needed to be repaired or serviced.
@@SebisRandomTech After the Emerson TV crapped out, we just tossed it in the E-waste dump. I have a JVC C-2010 CRT TV from 1990 and the picture occasionally jumps, but it still works okay.
I didn't know Orion made tape transports.
I fucking love mega man!!
I really want a CRT TV but i want one with Component input, can anyone give me a suggestion?
Hard to recommend a particular model, but Trinitrons and "Wega" Trinitrons made in the 2000's and possibly the late 1990's will typically have a component input.
@@SebisRandomTech Thanks man! I'll definetly check it out to buy one.
@@KimowotaJP component isnt in Europe
*I upload the videos
This TV/VHS combo MADE IN JAPAN???
+Alexandr5797 No. Its made in Thailand.
I have the dvd one
do you repair crt tv's? can you open them up and calibrate the picture using the yoke? can you fix convergence issues? is it safe? any safety tips?
I have worked on CRT TV’s before, and have calibrated the picture in some. Haven’t really done any convergence work though. When it comes to safety, when you take off the back cover, be sure to discharge the CRT before advancing any further. Even after months of being unplugged, the tube can still carry a high voltage charge. Even after this, take special care when working near the power supply area of the motherboard (this is usually the part with large capacitors and power transformers), as some of these capacitors can also carry a very high voltage/current after months of being unplugged. Lastly, be especially careful when working near the tube so you don’t nick it and damage the tube. If the vacuum is lost the tube will never work again, and a puncture can potentially lead to the tube imploding, sending shards of glass everywhere.
As long as you know what you are doing and don’t do anything stupid, you should be fine.
i would love to be able to achieve this ua-cam.com/video/3SsLwcSKIOY/v-deo.html
i have my tritron service manual which more or less gives a step by step guide. only problem is the tv needs to be turned on for calibration. right?
That is correct. Just don’t touch any circuitry or the surface of the tube, and you should be safe.
What's the surface of the tube? do you just mean the tube itself? also the picture doesn't look crisp at all. compared to my 21inch trinitron, its night and day. so, loosening readjusting the yoke and rings around the yoke is relatively safe?
also, there's a very faint horizontal line of what seems to be dim pixels. ever come across anything like that?
I think the horizontal line is present on most of the Trinitrons, older ones especially. And I do mean the tube itself.
This is i was 1 year
There are not from the same time peri dne is from 1091 ,2001,2003,2004
I believe I said MOST of them are from the same time period.
Orion are the more el cheapo brand of tubes
Still better than a Funai.
Yeah far better than Funai, id say Orion are ok but you would expect a orion tube to have a somewhat noticeable weak picture if the tube had many many hours on it
Well, I guess this tube (actually all of my Orion tubes) have low hours.
