Good Video
Great summary but don't forget to check out these AI programs that can clean up REALLY old films like your Dad's videos. An also backup your precious files on "Archive" discs because they literally last forever. like 1000's of years. They only hold 100GB a disc an cost $25 each but never trust precious files you can't replace to Hard drives an SSD's have the worst "bit rot", only archival discs work for long term storage.
SSDs hold data by a small current that they retain sadly it goes dead after 2-5 years in storage. One way to avoid it is to power on the drive every so often as it holds the charge for roughly 2-5 years. But if it ever losses the charge all the data would be gone. Magnetic disc drives are still a heck of a lot safer then SSDs but even they have risks. Best bet is one of those M-DISC archival discs It's a Blu-ray but unlike standard blu-ray where the disc dye rots and wears out after about 25-50 years for most blu-rays it has a like a rock layer instead of dye for the data layer. It lasts 1000 years I guess. Main killer for a blu-ray would be UV rays and humidity. So keep it out of direct sunlight. And best to keep it in climate controlled environment. Very high temperatures and very low temperatures can damage regular blu-rays so.
What AI programs exist for this?
@@Cyberbronco Davinci Resolve & Topaz Video enhance AI are some great ones. I think Adobe makes one too? You'll also need something like StaxRip to DE-INTERLACE (fixes the weird horizontal lines) the footage too.
Are there any digital converters out there that record in 4K?
Thank you. Now to find that VCR
Your local library may have one you can borrow for free.
Thank you I got tape from the 80's😂😂🤓🤓🤓
Can you edit as you record? EX: have a 1 hour kids soccer game but only want to save bits and pieces on the lash drive
Could you use something like a rca to hdmi then a cheap capture card to Directly record to pc? it might also be cheaper
While there are multiple options similar to what you’re suggesting, this converter is a bit pricier because of its convenience factor. It requires very little effort to convert tapes when using this device and while converting the tapes directly to the PC is a nice idea, you still have to sort those files the same way you would using other video converters. Hope this helps!
What about cassette tapes?
im sure cassette would work as its the same general concept as long as you have a device to play them and AV jack connections.
Yes!!!🤭
