  • The VCR: Video Cassette Recorder is a mysterious piece of vintage tech. And in this video, we sit down to review it in 2020 in a series I like to call; Vintage Tech review. The Video Cassette Recorder is nostalgic, and a perfect piece of vintage tech.
    I also share with you how I digitize analog VHS video and save it to a digital Hard Drive.
    I hope you enjoy VCR: Video Cassette Recorder in 2020 | A Vintage Tech Review.

    Now I'm thinking of making a little side biz offering to digitize tapes for people in my area. It's small enough that there's a bunch of older ppl and tech illiterates to maybe do it and big enough to have a lot of ppl needing help maybe.

    Good stuff, man - it'd be so fun to go back and see some of my old videos! Just don't think I can find them...

      I actually have been asking my parents to get me some of my old family tapes so I can digitize them... such a good throwback ❤️

    The output of a VCR is not approximately 480p. CRT TV sets cannot display a 480 line progressive signal. Typical NTSC CRT TV sets can display progressive 240 at 60 Hz or interlaced 480 at 30Hz. You can have 240p or 480i, not 480p.

    I have that same exact VCR (the 80s one). I am working on it to get it working. It plays the tape and doesn’t eat it but no picture.

      Tom DeCicco I have a parts VCR that I am yet to transplant the tape head out of. If it doesn’t work then i’ll get in touch.

      Tom DeCicco The assembly of that VCR is actually quite simple. I made mine stop eating tapes because one of the belts were loose. The panel is at the bottom.

    Put the cassette like in the trunk of a car,
    then wait another 15 minutes for the video to start working
    as if waiting for something to cook

    Was just about to start doing all of mine...when casually stalking your vids, glad to see someone else feels my pain with this process. On the up side the persons giving you those tapes...might have forgotten about that dirty tape they filmed.. 😝 on their old vcr camera. #pornhubvintagegold.
