Sony Digital8/DV camcorders' video input test: bad VHS tape capturing *READ DESCRIPTION*
NOTE: this is a test / problem demo video NOT meant for generic consumption / enjoyment. Please see th-cam.com/video/vKdge08pfTw/w-d-xo.html for the "official", no-technical-problems-present event transfer.
In the comment section of th-cam.com/video/e2Qt0rQVRhc/w-d-xo.html , I've been discussing the various problems I've encountered during capturing. In order to properly demonstrate those issues, I decided to publish a mini-series of transferring a quite bad VHS tape with all these methods so that you can easily see those issues yourself.
This very video shows how the DCR-TRV355E captured its analogue video in into a digital Firewire stream. The video exhibits the problems I consistently encountered with almost all "problem" tapes:
1, "popping" sound when something is louder. (NOTE: this issue is somewhat alleviated but not entirely reduced by switching the camera's audio recording mode from the default 12bit/32 kHz mode to 16 bit / 48 kHz. Obviously, my test recording demoes this in already 16bit mode.)
2, audio drifting. In this very video, the audio of the event is "faster": it ends at 33:54.07, while the image stream itself ends at 34:15.19 only. That is, after some half an hour of transfer, the Sony accumulated an audio drift of a whopping 21 seconds!
Again: this is only a problem with bad or non-SP tapes. With good ones (first-gen SP recordings with no empty tape segments in between and NOT deterioated tape), in 16-bit audio mode, the Sony has generally fared just fine with no audio drift/popping sound. (Actually, many of my previously-published transfers have been done this way.) HOWEVER, second-generation copies, LP mode or deterioated tape, you WILL encounter these issues.
VERY important: it's this popping distortion that made TH-cam's content identifier NOT detect "Spanish Gypsy Dance". (This is why this is the only video in the entire series visible in Russia.) In ALL other (non-Sony) videos it did identify the music.
Note: I have the DCR-TRV355E - a mid-class Sony. I assume the Firewire encoder functionality / issues of other Sony camcorders are the same. I may be wrong though.
Note 2: this demo video shows how the Sony digitized the Panasonic NV-HS860 SVHS deck's output (with TBC and 3D NR enabled) over S-video. Playing back "problem" Video8/Hi8 tapes directly in the Sony would also result in audio drifting (but not "popping"). For example, at first, I tried digitizing the multiple-hour (LP recording) Hi8 tape th-cam.com/video/jEBBtGme--M/w-d-xo.html directly with the Sony. The audio drifting was tremendous even when I frequently stopped and (with some overlapping) restarted digitizing, knowing I could then just remove the overlaps in post. Of course, while overlap fixing is simple, doing the same to analogue audio drifting is almost impossible. The just-linked video was therefore NOT digitized in-camera but using an external frame TBC unit and also an external Firewire digitizer.
IMPORTANT: in most cases (good-quality tape without major dropouts), you still want to prefer digitizing your Video8/Hi8 recordings in-camera, that is, without using an external Firewire digitizer, let alone an external frame TBC. At least I do so: I do my V8/Hi8 transfers first in-camera and I only switch to using external digitizers (and possibly frame TBCs) when the internal transfer proves to be useless (major drifting issues).

This narrated (use the auto-translate feature; works just great) holiday video shows around the UK. While it mostly shows tourist attractions, it also (briefly) looks around in cities; see for example 00:13:08 and 01:04:34 . The original Hi8 tape was shot in LP (not SP!) & is pretty much deteriorated; consequently, the video doesn't have a very good quality. Fortunately, the frame TBC function ...

That was unknown as what happens the television well on the channel see how you found
I'm not sure I understand?
As a Londoner this makes me sad, central london used to be so good, I went there at least once a week, now I don't set foot in the center its awful and feels unsafe. also I really miss the shop Past Times that was a great shop and shutting the Trocadero (Sega World) was an utter tragedy.
The round circle thing looks like he forgot to take a lens off. I had a lens (can’t remember if it was for macro or telephoto) for my Chinon camera where, if I forgot to take it off, all the photos would auto-focus and expose properly but would have the same weird circle around the edges.
It's an Ultra Wideanlge add-on lens. Old(er) camcorders all lacked wideangle zooms - they generally started at 35-40mm. (That's one of their biggest disadvantages.) With those focal lengths, it's very hard to include as much in the frame as possible. Only semi-pro, considerably larger / heavier and much pricier models started at 28mm.
Kiitos niin paljon tästä...
Hey! Quick question about the DJI OSMO Mobile 6 - could you confirm if it works properly with iPhone 16 Pro Max? Saw some posts on Reddit saying there were issues, so kinda worried about the size fit and software stuff. Thanks! 💪
Positive. I've been using the OSMO with the 16PM ever since I've received it. No problems whatsoever. I've just shot a video showing this; will very soon post it (just editing). NOTE: I use the stock camera app, NOT that of DJI as all third-party camera apps are crippled, "thanks" to Apple.
here's the promised video: th-cam.com/video/ub1tTupXp8c/w-d-xo.html
very helpful bro. Many thanks. Need more youtubers like you. Keep your work up.
Are you using the stock clip?
What do you mean?
@@mostlyfinnishlifeeventsand5112 Are you using the spring clip to hold the iPhone 16 Max - does the Osmo hold the weight of the Pro Max?
@@coolspot18 the default magnetic / spring clip. It does hold it, as it did with the 14PM + Otterbox Defender and the 11 + Otterbox Defender- see my other answer posted yesterday to "Reading Rambo"
Im a complete amateur and Im thinking about gettin the OM6 to use with my iPhone 16PM. I like to keep my iPhone in a protective case, and I was wondering if it will fit on the OM6 with a case?
It will, I too use my 16PM in a plastic, Qi-passthru case (sum weight: 261g). As I did with the 14PM in the Otterbox "heavy duty" "Defender" thick case. As the 14PM is heavier than the 16PM (with the Otterbox, exactly 311g) - even that worked just fine. Just make sure you properly balance the phone (with the gimbal off) to avoid overdriving the gimbal's motor. I've also extensively used with the iPhone 11 with its own Otterbox Defender (full weight: 277g) Note: IIRC, I even used it with the Rode Wireless Pro receiver clipped on the 14PM's left side - without any case. With a case, IIRC it was too much for the poor gimbal. All in all, even 311g was OK (properly balanced).

Paikallishistoriaa; hyvä että ladattu; mutta minä paikallinen asuja olisin toivonut kuulevani sen hetkisiä puheenaiheita. Video kokemus ilman niitä jäi latteaksi🙁 Oliko ääniraita tuhoutunut vuosien saatossa? Edes osa siitä olisi ollut mukavaa kuulla.

BTW, did you notice I regularly post (sometimes very lengthy) descriptions under my videos? They generally contain a lot of additional / background information for the video.
