Re: How many of us kept their old collections?

There's actually lots of easy USB hook ups you can get to digitize VHS--you basically just connect your VCR to a computer, use the software, viola! https://amzn.to/2NhIFQY I used to have one an early version of this a long time ago to make my own screencaps, but after I updated my computer it would...

Re: How many of us kept their old collections?

I have 2 Hauppage units. I have used them in the past but disconnected them as they overheated the i5 laptop I was using for captures. I have since given one unit to a friend to cap old laser discs with no DVD release. He says it works good since you can cap via the component inputs. My other unit I...

Re: How many of us kept their old collections?

The problem as it stands right now is if there is ANY interest in preserving any series other than DB at this point, at least from fans on this side of the ocean. I frequent sites with information on things that have gone missing that I might have but even getting the info in the first place can be ...

Re: How many of us kept their old collections?

The original airing broadcast audio Dragonball episodes I have seem to be the big thing but some people are never satisfied. Give them something no one else has and they STILL complain. Biggest is that the shows aren't recorded in LPCM audio instead of the Dolby Digital the DVD recorders default to....

Re: Relating to younger fans...

The only things I got asked to contribute in the past couple years were my games machines so bored kids had something to do. After losing equipment at several cons, none of my equipment is going anywhere. If the con has enough money to afford expensive guests, they have enough to get much less expen...

Re: WTB: Japanese Manga Magazine Back Issues

Looks like I have quite a few of the old Weekly Big Comic Spirits from 1990 or so. Dunno how much these would cost to ship from Canada. If you have a list of issues i should be looking for, please PM it to me...

Re: How many of us kept their old collections?

Found a bunch more stuff in my travels like the original broadcast episodes of Esteban Child of the Sun which aired in 1983. As I understand it, NHK threw out the audio masters for that show, so it was redubbed in the 1990s for re-release. There were only three of the original episodes up on Youtube...
