Any "Tape Heads" or "Spinners?" (VHS or Laserdisc Collectors?)

yep standard RCA situation

Yes, RCA. Yellow video and two audio Red and White. Plays best, (in my opinion), on original CRT intent... but I'm old school.

Awww. Dude. Sorry to hear that man. But it's never too late! Films never die/go away! I'm sure you can start a-new.

Took to watching this tonight, Hunger... kinda surprised that it made it to a Laserdisc transfer... seems more of a VHS vignette kinda deal. It felt like a student film. If your going to cover your bases here, narratively it was "meh," as far as aesthetically and through innovation it had "moments," but they were better covered in the French New Wave, and a technical stand point it didn't pave any new ground. So curious. Curious as to "why" it made this format? And two, since it "did" it certainly adjusts my eyes on the "range" of the Laserdisc format. Very interesting.

It is I used to find all my films at car boots and charity shops.. now all you see is .. Independence Day and Err Braveheart I had obscure movies, you just don’t see them anymore

I am taking all the tapes at my mom's house and I bought a Sanyo VCR from Goodwill for $8.99+tax. I also acquired a backup VCR for free. One of the blue line Panasonics.

So yes, my analog brother, we are the same.

I’ll trade you a Sony Wega for one of them there vcrs.

what makes you think i don’t already have one?

Knowing you, one is never enough.
Shall we talk about flashlights?

mine is only a 20” so yes, this is true.

my man, I can talk flashlights all day

@doubledenim i'll tell you what i'm on the hunt for now: a high end A/V receiver with analog inputs. preferably s-video and component inputs
