"just a hobby."

so thank you for you who listen to me mumbling about my hobby, as no one i know personally still collect movies, and willing to listen to what i have got to share. you are awesome.

"Real, Unscripted."

so apologies if sometimes my topic is a mess. i tried making scripted discussions in the past, but when it comes to this hobby, it did not feel right. it felt, well, scripted. not natural. i like it this way, like i am talking to my real friends who, back then, would listen to my thoughts.

"viva physical media."

the world of cinema is rapidly changing. all physical media distributors in my country is dead. i desperately need your help to keep this community alive.

"niche of a niche."

i hope that as long as this channel is active, the beacon for Video Compact Disc shall remain, amidst the storm of the Cyber age.

    I inserted the older Inova Digimedia VCDs (MovieLine and Dutamitra) into my DBPower DVD player and they were VCD 1.1 too.

    Inova's old/early VCDs had me wondering if 1.1 and 2.0 has noticeable difference in reading speed because some players (mine happen with Sony and LG) cannot fast forward beyond 4X smoothly for some of old Inova VCDs, but turns out it can affect both 1.1 and 2.0 although i assume it affects 1.1 more (still need to check this again when i got the chance)

    Well my DBPower portable DVD player is also able to detect which VCD version it is playing, when it plays VCD 2.0 the PBC On/Off mode appears on screen after the VCD 2.0 text appears (the PBC mode does not show up on screen on VCD 1.1). Samsung DVD players also show Menu Off when VCD 2.0 is detected.

    its a small feature that most new players don't have, but an important one for VCD collectors especially if we want to compare both standars. like some players cannot even display VCD menu,, its not that important but we want to see all the features if its available 👍👍

    I think I remember some DVD Player could run VCD in only certain region. Yes some region has a DVD Player but didn't support VCD. I remember too some VCD 1.1 always do PBC Off while VCD 2.0 always do PBC On PBC is Play Back Control, so it's like repeat but it never be stopped except you press stop button or set PBC Off And some VCD has PBC Menu, so it will run to prompt PBC Menu (if they had one), PBC Menu just like Title Menu or Root Menu from DVD but it only could do with number control and not like navigation DVD menu.

    wow thats unfortunate! i remember Panasonic advertised that a DVD player will play VCDs, and Sony used a model with VCD logo on the tray for their 1999 DVD player ads, so thank you for the info that its not always the case. i always thought that a DVD player will always backward compatible with VCD. this gives more context to Techmoan's video about VCD and how he cannot play it on his Bluray player while i can play them in mine. For the menu on VCD as you mentioned, i wonder why some DVD player models (usually newer ones) and all bluray players that i tried, will not show the menu and just go straight to the movies so people cannot really know if their VCD actually has a menu. thank you for stopping by and writing a comment 😊

    I'm sorry to hear about your problems with the format. I have never encountered a tape in my life because of which I would have to manually clean the head. These tapes with Cinema Club label were never issued in my country. Unfortunately, VHS is a cumbersome format and it's difficult to call it "universal" because not all tapes are equal. Some are worn out, some are dirty, and others are moldy. My VCR unit has zero problems playing blank VHS tapes used for recording or the tapes from late 1990s/early 2000s, but it doesn't like the very old stuff: heavy tapes from the late 1980s, but I don't have a lot of these in my collection. Then again, I use my VCR very sparingly because I know that when it gives up, it's the end for me. lol I tend to stick to DVDs as the core of my collection.

  • @skywalkerhunter95
    @skywalkerhunter95Ай бұрын

    wow! thank you for the comment! 😊 i was honestly panicked when my VCR refused to play any tape after i loaded Before Sunrise and Hercules. i followed a tutorial on youtube explaining what could cause the problem, and it shows a step by step tutorial to clean the head. i tried it and the VCR went back to normal. but every time i tried those tapes again, i had to clean the head. i'm confused as what could possibly be the cause. the tapes looks fine, and does not seem to have molds building up... i'm even more confused when more tapes acting up though these got no mold and i never dropped them or keep them irresponsibly. the one thing i have not tried is to use a different VCR. its possible that mine is not as good as i thought. i plan to buy another unit, but havent found one that is working properly and in reasonable price. most are asking insane amount of money, and i still fear that theres no guarantee it'll work so i'll just be wasting my money. i don't use the unit very often as i only got a few tapes, and just like you, i primarily use the discs instead. its sad because I do like the format... 😔 its an interesting format, but just way too unpredictable for me. Thank you 😊

    @@skywalkerhunter95 No problem. It's not surprising for me that there is a tape without mold, but it causes problems. I encountered such tapes in my childhood. I always explained to myself that there is some invisible for eye residue or grease on a tape that causes the issue. However, usually inserting a cleaning tape into a VCR fixed the issue. For me, VHS is big nostalgia because it was the only format in Poland in the 1980s and the 1990s, there was no Laserdisc, VCD or others. The only major big step for my country was DVD in the 2000s. lol Yeah, maybe your unit is faulty but it's hard for me to determine. If it plays those sealed tapes without problem, then it's best to avoid the faulty tapes you bought. Wish you best of luck with collecting and I look forward to your videos. PS From my collection of about 300 tapes only 100 survived to the present day, half of which are Disney animations.

    Meanwhile I found an ad in a circa late 90's magazine ad (rolling stone) for dvds that said they are good for a lifetime, maybe we should send that ad in with any request for replacement dvds. They were $29.99 @ the time in the early 2000's, more for titles like Once Upon a Time In America which was $39 @ the time and $99 for the Godfather trilogy.

    yes! i heard that about WB's faulty discs! unfortunately, it wont cover all areas. mine is region 3, and WB (along with all studios) no longer distribute physical media in my area since over 5 years ago. but even back then, studios did not distribute the discs themselves, and distributors in my area will never replace any faulty disc ( the warranty usually expires after only 1 week). i tried reaching out once to the distributor of faulty Fox dvds, and they accused me of damaging the discs myself, they wont admit defect in manufacturing... 🥲
