I want to be in the room when they plug that VCR into a 70-in TV and hit play just to see their faces.
I have a media converter made from a raspberry pi I use for all of my old consoles so I can play them on modern TVs. I bet it would work great for vhs tapes as well. Tape degradation might be a different issue though...
Even the fresh tapes don't hold up well to digital. That phosphor blur, small screen size and insane brightness made that picture look so much better than it really was. you spread that out to the large screen it looks rough.
Video games with a lot of solid colors work well, but everything else is a horror show
My vcr and all old consoles actually work fine on my shitty insignia flat-screen. But I'd rather play on my crt or projector tv.
Works, yes.
that 480x(520)480 resolution tho...
I've never cared about visual quality myself. I regularly play atari 2600 games so graphics are no where in my realm of care
a fair and subjective opinion
Keep a 13-inch TV around?
