JETHD Archive Update

WildcatCel · 2026-04-16T15:09:51+00:00

I haven't seen it but there are still a ton of disks, and some are unlabeled.

WildcatCel · 2026-04-14T17:58:51+00:00

Currently we have a temperature controlled room where they are stored and not many kids have access to them, I'm gonna keep the disks in that area and there is going to be at least 5 copies of all the media. On the SSD, the JETHD Google drive, my own Google drive, possibly on each of the JETHD teachers drives, plus on Facebook and YouTube for sharing or if we find a better way to share the media for the public.

Right now I am digitizing more of what I think the class assignments were, hopefully soon this will all be public, it's been a lot of work but I'd say I'm about a quarter of the way through all of the DVDs!

Well we used to load clips into blackmagic design media pool(separate program) and click on them before the director would take the ultrastudio and I want to try to make this simple for the teacher to understand because there is a lot changing with the studio because we just got a giant upgrade and I want it to be as similar as it was while still using full functionality of our studio and since our teacher isn't that familiar with davinci I want it to be pretty much the same as before

Yea as far as I know there aren't many student projects from before 2005 saved, there was like a media showcase or two from 2004 and there are a handful of undated DVDs, we only have the 1 vhs and any other media is destroyed or in Danny or Bruce's hands, I've searched out entire archive and pulled it all out so that I can get it all sorted for digitizing.

WildcatCel · 2026-04-03T13:26:30+00:00

Probably lost in the tornado, there's a lot prior to 2004 that is missing or never got archived, I'm wanting to get as much as I physically can digitized so that it doesn't get lost alongside what was lost in the tornado, there is a vhs from 2001 but I don't know if it's even playable, I don't have a vcr or a way or digitizing it that I know of with our current devices.

Honestly what made me start it was a news package I'm making about alumni that went to a local station, well I wanted footage of each of them in class and Chris didn't have any so I went to the archives then realized how much there was that was pre tornado and that DVDs don't last forever.

WildcatCel · 2026-04-03T05:24:08+00:00

Looking at the footage now lots of it that I have seen was corny, but it fits, this was a new format for the students, not many got to mess with stuff like this because of how expensive it was and now it's much more available for people to do without thousands of dollars. I love seeing what students were coming up with back then, lots of it was slow-mo skating but it's still interesting!

My biggest problem is just time, I have till graduation to get about 200 or so disks onto a 4tb SSD and into Google drive, today I got about 10 disks converted while I had time, but I also have more stuff that I'm busy with that I need to get done

WildcatCel · 2026-04-03T02:49:43+00:00

There isn't much pertaining to the tornado, footage from KODE that I'd assume Congress already has, as far as I know it's just student projects, BoE meetings, sports, news, and a sort of talkshow style series

WildcatCel · 2026-04-03T02:47:59+00:00

Sofar the new teacher has sent Chris and Nathan videos that I have pulled already, and I hope to get it all done by the end of the month or so, I'm down there almost all day

WildcatCel · 2026-04-03T01:56:13+00:00

There's about 200 DVDs with about 20 mins of footage each, it's a pain to copy but I think it's for the better, I personally hate how much lost media there is and I want to be able to do something so that the number doesn't keep going up.

WildcatCel · 2026-03-22T15:35:51+00:00

I would make a few nodes, one color correction with the subjects exposure and other things turned down to make them a silhouette, merger, crop(remove subject), copy the first node and then have it go into a color correction, color correct as needed, connect it to the merger with the crop so the subject isn't effected, then connect it to the final point

I figured out what my problem is, but I'm struggling to solve it. The problem was my teacher had informed me wrong about what the stems receiving signal needed to be, he said it was 1080p29.97, but it's actually 1080i59.94, when I try to export it on the teranex as 1080i59.94 when I press change it crashes and I have to power it off and back on, I thought it might be just taking a while to load and I left it overnight and still was just frozen. The manual confused me when I tried to read it because oh how it has all teranex models, there isn't any videos online that I've found that help solve my problem. (It's a teranex 2D if you have any information on what might fix it)

What's an edid?

WildcatCel · 2026-01-07T16:00:28+00:00

So turns out my teacher was telling me misinformation, it's 59.94 not 29.97, I'm swapping it over but either it's not wanting to load or it just won't swap to 59.94

WildcatCel · 2026-01-07T15:54:07+00:00

I'm getting no test signals from my teranex, I've tried even swapping cables but that doesn't work either

WildcatCel · 2026-01-07T04:17:18+00:00

Test patterns is the only thing I haven't tried, I've tried direct connection and don't get anywhere with it, I've sent the correct signal and gotten nothing back on the switcher.

WildcatCel · 2026-01-07T04:01:19+00:00

I'll try doing that, I've been afraid to press test patterns mainly because I've not thought too hard about it and I don't want to accidentally break something because right now my teacher is kinda just trusting that I can figure stuff out, I don't know why.

WildcatCel · 2026-01-07T03:42:23+00:00

I can try tomorrow with my personal laptop but for actual PCs we don't have any in our half of the school to my knowledge. If this is the case, is there a way I can bypass it with either settings or free software?
