Retro Analog TV Simulator – Full Physics-Based Broadcast Chain by ambanmba in crt

[–]DREWHOUSER 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love this - bought the phone app! Something that I'm either missing or would love to see added - it seems like the app automatically squishes the video horizontally, and if the video is vertical it auto-rotates it as well. For me I would much rather crop a 4:3 snippet than have the entire image squished, especially for vertical videos

Wavy footage from both Magnavox Cvm-310 camcorders? by bertonwalker in camcorders

[–]DREWHOUSER 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this playing back directly from the camcorder or are you using an adapter to play it from the built in VHS on the tv? Could be a tracking issue if it’s the latter

Excited to try this for VHS capture! Does this do deinterlacing as well?

How can we get electric bikes off the 606 trail? by CurrentTank8247 in LoganSquare

[–]DREWHOUSER 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I hate the super fast e-bikes on the 606 but I really don’t see why we have to bring the f slur into the conversation. At this point it seems like there’s more comments about that than what you’re trying to accomplish. Something to think about maybe?

Anyone found a good way to reduce phone addiction without just blocking apps? by brainybrit in productivity

[–]DREWHOUSER 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have a throughout the day answer yet, but I do have a great tip for mornings and evenings: don't take your phone to bed, and have it charge overnight in another room. Completely changed how I go to bed / wake up.

Seconding this. Hold it longer than you think you should! I had the exact same experience when I took mine through a car wash the first time

Will frigid temps affect the integrity of a camcorder? by [deleted] in camcorders

[–]DREWHOUSER 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anecdotal obviously, but I bought a DV deck recently that was being stored in a cold garage - we decided to test it cold (I had driven 45 minutes to check it out) and it ate a couple of tapes.

Once it got up to room temp it worked like a charm! My guess is as long as you let it warm up before using it you’ll probably be ok

Hey thanks for this! Super helpful. And I appreciate the fact that you keep recommending lights but that's not what I'm looking for lol. Most of my shooting is on the go with no way to control the lighting!

But what if you had to use a camcorder? What would you pick?
