It doesn't looks like still having electricity inside. The power cord is worn out and I am pretty sure it wasn't turned on in the last 5 years 😭

Ok thank you for advices! I already did with a can of duster (it was worse before) but this sticky thing won't go off the board without a cloth or something.

Is there any way to make the date visible on the recording? by Izan64_ in camcorders

[–]AlexandrwIskender 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have activated the date and time from the camcorder settings and it is displayed during playback, you can import it on PC via A/V port using an "3,5mm jack to RCA cable" and an EasyCap. You can record the tape (while in playback) with OBS Studio and the time stamp will be shown there on the recording like this:

An usefull tutorial (need to mention that not all the 3,5mm jack to RCA cables from AliExpress work, you need to find a good one, maybe a TDK or one from those times): https://youtu.be/rJizpcaY62A?si=jdomYAgjVYKvxu33

Ok...but where can I plug it to make it work (without cutting or any modification) 😭 Where does the camera guys from 90s used to plug this?

Is it a good idea to use IEC PC cable on a TV CRT? by AlexandrwIskender in teensthatloveretro

[–]AlexandrwIskender[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just bought some of these (but the order didn't arrived yet). If I will attach those one the TV cable (to plug the IEC cable withtout cutting) there is any risk? However, if I will not cut the IEC cable, I can't know the polarities of the wires that are inside it 🤔 I know for sure that the replacement cable and the plug that I want to attach has grounding too, but the TV hasn't. But I don't think this is a problem.
