History of Japan but Every Time He Says "In" it Gets Copied to Another VHS

VHS generational loss
My first video where I actually have 2 VCRs to do this with! To find out what I previously used, look in this video's description • We Are Number One on V...
This was originally going to have the word japan copy the tape, but by the 20th generation my VCRs were crapping out and motly showing blue screens
Transcript and References of the captions can be found here (inform me if it's incorrect or incomplete) docs.google.com/document/d/1I...
I used Sony VCRs in NTSC format with Japanese tapes! Does it get more Japanese than that?
Equipment used:
Sony SLV-N81 VCR (recording and playback)
Sony SLV-775HF VCR (playing for purposes of copying)
Sony T120 Premium Grade High Durability tape (even number generations)
TDK Premium Quality HS Tape (odd number generations)
Canopus ADVC110 (digital to analog transfer)
Dazzle DVC100 (HU3194, analog to digital transfer)
Virtualdub (analog to digital transfer)
Handbrake (digital file conversion)
Sony Movie Studio Platinum 14 Steam Edition (assembling and correcting video-audio sync)

VHS is a format by the e-waste filled with nostalgia and it’s A N A L O G! In the year 1890, recordings might not have existed. In the year 1900 they did exist, and you could listen to them! And some people listened to them, then it got large, the cylinder flattened, it became marketable and now there’s lots of players because it’s marketable. So now there’s record on the market, they’re basically sort of hanging out in between the store shelves, selling for profit and using the latest technology, like needles and speed control. DING DONG! It’s the innovators, and they technology from the future, like wire recording and crazy record times. Now you can store a lot of sound, really really compactly. That means if you own the recorder, you own a lot of capacity, which is something that everybody needs to entertain, so that makes you dominant. Wire recordings and wire recorders spread across the market all the way to here. The most important formats were this, this, this, this, this, this and this, but this one was the most important, known as Webster-Chicago, or portable for short. Knock Knock! Get the door, it’s tape! The new prince wants everyone to use this hot new storage medium called 8-track. “Please, try this storage medium!” He said “NO” said everybody “Try it!” He said “No…” said everyone again, quieter this time. And so the standard was put into place, and all the players that came with it. The the market was taken over by RCA tape cartridge. And they made some reforms, like making the audio less noisy and making the audio more like vinyl’s audio that’s less noisy. “Hi vinyl”, they said “Hi scrawny” said vinyl “Can you call us something else other than scrawny?” Said cassette. “Like what?” Said vinyl “How about portable?” And they stole vinyl’s market share and made a store. For themselves. And then they make a lot of audiobooks and music and another store for themselves. Then they stopped changing the format every time something new came out and kept it as one standard for a while. Audio cassette. And they conquered Europe, finally. Get that squared away. A rich format named Quadraplex is bored with linear tape scan visits vinyl and learns a better scan which is more helical, then it comes back, invents home video tape and causes TV playback to be great for a long time. And the professional equipment turned into such a dream world of preservation that they really didn’t give a shit about the consumers. So if you work outside the studio, how are you supposed to protect your sanity from missed shows? PHILLIPS VCR. Everyone started using the Phillips VCR. Rich important people used Phillips VCR, poor people who could not afford to use Phillips VCR did not use Phillips VCR. VCR became organized and prolific, more prolific than Quadraplex. So they made their own compact cassette store here. They let Quadraplex stay in the studios, but VCR is actually in control. BREAKING NEWS, the CED has invaded the market. “We’ve invaded the market” said CED “Please respect us, or else we might put you out of business”. “Okay” said VCR. So CED came over, ready to sell, and died in the competition. But they tried again and had a nice time fighting with VCR, and died in the competition. The V2000 overthrows VCR, then U-Matic overthrows him back and moved to Japan and males a new format. And V2000 can still use the VCR logo if he wants, that’s fine. Now there’s more content! Like recording from TV, home video sales, personal memories, sexy times, tape rentals, camcorder plugin, multi-timers, time-shifting. It’s time for who’s going to be the next format. Usually it’s U-Matic’s kid, but U-Matic doesn’t have a kid, so he tries to get a new cassette to come out of prototypes and have more tape, called VHS. VHS says okay, but then U-Matic has a kid, called Beta. So now who’s gonna be? Vote now with your money. And everyone voted so hard that the discussion caught on fire and burned down. U-Matic actually didn’t care, he was off somewhere doing professional stuff, and so the whole market descended into a format war. Everyone is fighting with each other for local power, and it’s anybody’s game. Knock knock, it’s competition. No, they’re not here to decide the winner, they just wanna sell features, like tape speeds and descrambling, and HIGH-FIDELITY. So that’s cool, but they’re both still fighting each other for control, now with Hi-Fi. And wouldn’t it be nice to control the distributors, which right now is puppets with no one dominant? Beta is ready to make a run for it, but first they have to trample this younger format (VHS) which is in the way. Surprise, VHS wins, and JVC steals the idea of invading distributors and invades the distributors, and it goes very well. He’s about halfway though conquering the market when LaserDisc kills them, and then S-VHS kills them, and S-VHS finishes conquering the market, and then he confiscated everybody’s Beta tapes, and made some standards. “And now I’m going to invade the sea, and then hopefully, space” he said, and failed, and also stagnated. But before he stagnated, he told these five companies to take care of the format until it’s advanced enough to rule the world. The five companies said “YEAH RIGHT… It’s not gonna be S-VHS, It’s gonna be normal VHS, because it’s ubiquitous”. And it’s probably going to be Sony, who happens to be way more rich and powerful than the others. Then people support him, but the content makers supported not supporting him. They have a fight and the people win! And starts a new video store right here: BLOCKBUSTER, and still lets V2000 use the VCR logo and flip tapes. But don’t get confused, this is the new format. And they’re very strict, so strict that they close the market. No format can come in and none may spin off, except for VHS-C if they want to record from camcorders, but they need to use and adapter. Now that the formats weren’t at war with themselves, adoption increased a lot. Businesses used them, schools used them, house used them, everybody learned to time-shift, movies were sold, there was action, horror, sexy times, low quality shows and linear edition. People started studying tape editing using techniques they learned from the cassette. We’re talking spicing, dubbing, scratching, generation loss, careful planning, and maybe even effects. Over time the quality and economic prosperity gradually began to slow down- KNOCKKNOCK, IT’S CD VIDEO. WITH SMALL DISCS, OF GOLD GOLD DISKS

“open to new formats. stop being so closed” said CD Video There’s nothing they can really do so they signed a contract that let’s. CD Video, Video CD and LaserDisc visit the market whenever they want. Sony and JVC hated this. “That sucks” they said “This sucks!”. And almost with very little outside help they overthrew the disks and somehow made VHS dominant again and moved it to the US market which they renamed “the best market”. They made new master copies, which was a lot more digital. They made distributions methods, which were also digital, and a high-fidelity system, that was also really digital, and do you know what else is digital? That’s right, CGI. So what can we distribute? Toy Story. So they distribute Toy Story on behalf of it’s previous owner, Disney and then go into camcorder formats. Then DV rushes in out of nowhere and says “Stop no you can’t take than we were going to make some compact camcorders of our own” And DV makes their camcorders, supervised by a shit-ton of VHS-Cs. And then once they build their camcorders they downgrade to a fuck-ton. Did I say downgrade? I meant upgrade. VHS says “can you maybe chill?”, then DV says “How about maybe you chill?”. VHS is kinda scared of DV. You’ll never guess who’s also scared of DV. Video8. So VHS and Video8 make an alliance together so they can be a little less scared of DV. Feeling confident, VHS goes to war against DV, just for a moment. And then they both get tired and stop. It’s time for Camcorder War 1. The world is about to have a war, because it’s the 1990S and recordings are getting crazy, and all these formats are excited to try each other on each other. Meanwhile VHS has been enjoying gaining movies and wants more, and the next thing on their list is the camcorder market and lots of good movies. All that stuff belongs to Digital8 with just had war declared on by Video8 because Video8 was friends with Hi8 which was being trespassed by Digital8 in order to get to HDV to kick HDV’s ass because HDV is friends with DV who was getting ready to kick MicroMV’s ass because MicroMV was getting ready to kick MiniDV’s ass because some MiniDV tape ate the tape out of a master MicroMV’s ass, or actually a cassette, and Video8 is currently friends with VHS, so you know what that means… Duh, VHS should take the camcorders which they wanted to do anyways, so they called Video8 on the internet to sort of let them know, and then they did it. And they also helped Video8 here and there with some transfers and stuff. Ding, now the war is over and congratulations, VHS! You technically fought int the wat which means you get to sit at the negotiating with the big dudes, where they decided who owns what. And yes, VHS gets to keep all that stuff they stole from Digital8. You also get to join the post-war standards alliance, the Implementers Forum, whose mission statement is to try not to make proprietary systems. The .com bubble is bad and VHS’s sales are now crappy, but the quality is doing just fine, then they put music on VHS and the forum says “No don’t do that if you’re in the forum you’re not supposed to make proprietary formats” and VHS said “How bout I do anyway?” And VHS makes more and more and more and more audio and was planning on invading the entire market. You’ve got mail! It’s from Digital8, the new speed of Digital8. He has a Coll video quality and is trying to take over the market and needs friends. This also got forwarded to DV. They all decided to become friends because they are all tape. IT’S TIME FOR FORMAT WAR II Digital8 Is invading the neighbored, then they invade new markets, and one of the new markets, which happened to be TiVo said “Holy shit”. And DVD helping TiVo because they are good friends, and they are not helping VHS because “their friends and our friends are not friends, plus they’re planning on invading the entire market!”. DVD is also working on a small very blue laser, more space than any other disk ever just in case. But they still haven’t joined the format war. War looks bad on TV and DVD is starting to care about its image, but then VHS spits on the in old houses and challenges them to war, and they say yes. And then Digital8, as a symbol of friendship, declares war on DVD also. So DVD goes to war in TV recording and they help the gang chase Digital8 back into camcorders and they also starting chasing VHS bacon into VCRs. They still haven’t used the blue laser yet and are curious to see if it works, so they drop Blu-Ray on VHS… and HD DVD too. DVD installed a new format inspired by the new blue lasers, with just the right ingredients for a post-war economic miracle, and then the market starts making Blu-Rays, SD cards, DVD mailing and camcorders as fast as they can, and also higher quality than VHS. They get popular and the sales go wildAnd then adoption stops growing, but everything is still pretty cool, I guess? Bye.

This feels as though i'm watching an old recording in a shoddy bunker of a Country's history, and that it's becoming worse and worse over time due to some kind of effect of a superweapon of the war that has almost completely obliterated the tape, and there are barely any comprehendable fragments left of it

I took what I knew about video formats and wrote it as a parody of History of Japan, though I had to shoehorn a few things to get it in, such as making up the implementer's forum
(yes I know I'm 4 years late to the party, but) It's interesting to see that the audio quality, although mostly unchanged, just keeps on getting LOUDER! The reason why VHS generation loss happens is because the bandwidth of the tape is not enough to carry the full NTSC/PAL signal, so it's like a repeated low-pass filtration, but the audio track of the tape is effectively a mono Compact Cassette tape, which has more than enough bandwidth for good quality audio, so the generational loss happens at frequencies we can't hear. I suspect the getting louder is an issue with the recording, where one VCR records the audio slightly too "hot", and really shouldn't happen.

Ive never seen subtitles with more effort than this. You must really like Bill Wurtz
love it that as soon the video mentions VCR's the VHS just give up
i spent about half the entire video not knowing that the captions were specially designed around the topic of video formats
I’ve never seen history of Japan before this but I assume this is the definitive viewing experience.
The captions were creatively built upon the original script, props to you.
Most of the generation loss is interesting, but there's one part that somehow got pretty dark by coincidence. At 8:26, the worst of the distortion kicks in right it says "but they hadn't used the bomb yet, & they were curious & wanted to see how it works, so they dropped it on Japan---" & then it *cuts off* & the distortion sounds like explosions as the image tears apart. 😨
I love the history lesson in the subtitles, super creative!
I love how even at the very end you can still make out whats happening about half of the time (If you've watched the video before)
4:50 The quality and economic prosperity gradually began to slow d- *gets nuked*
Beginning to realize that the reason a lot of the videos I watched in grade school during "movie days" were so low quality is likely because they were several generation deep copies made by a school district in big debt.
This is an incredible video. First for the concept and the execution, second for the story told in the captions
Like an old School VHS.
Bill wurtz got into a time machine, went back to 1997 and made this video
How'd it take 5 years since this thing's release to find this? And those subtitles, you weren't lying! All in all, a great showing of generational degradation, but I think those subs stole the show.

holy shit wow, this is some impressive effort for just this one thing. did you use a fresh tape for every generation, or did you use a higher-quality tape with minimal artifacting between recordings? I'm vaguely familiar with the idea of more "reusable" tapes that won't immediately shit the bed when re-recorded to, but I never really had much experience with them since my family always opted for the cheapest, most mediocre tapes to get the job done at all.

That is really crazy how you thought of making that. Amazing.
the captions are actually p accurate ngl
Interestingly the voice was the only thing that didn't get extremely distorted
For some reason this remember me of Regular Show
random teacher who cant get over using VHS: finally i can show this to my class
Something about the early vhs recordings makes it feel like a video that got dragged into class on the tv cart. it was so warm and enjoyable
super cool vid✿ I enjoyed the visuals a lot
This was AWESOME!!!
I love how the captions are the format wars, literally
This looks like when aliens blew up earth and this is the last knowledge of history just there
Excellent work! It's like I was really there.
The captions were peak quality thank you
This video slowly gets creepier as you go on until one point we're it gets static

I see the algorithm caught this video again! First view here, genuinely fascinating to see how it degrades. And hearing the audio slightly pitch up and down later on is wild.
I love how the audio is still comprehensible
this is a genuen masterpiece, thank you for this video
Wish the original video could be done also for many other countries, it's a marvelous summary
The surprise captions were a treat!!
Bro, sick captions. Actually learned a decent bit.
For those wondering whether analog or digital is better, the 18th generation copy of a DVD will look and sound just as good as the first, as long as you use a high-quality format.
the captions are so awesome!!!

7:18 Captions: "but the quality is doing just fine." Me: "Are you sure about that?"
