[kenmasters83]

[Xylob the Destroyer]

[reboot]

Buffy, all 7 seasons.
McGuyver, everything I can find.
This season's LOST.
American Idol for the wifey.
Scooby Doo for my son.
Tripping the Rift, because it's such a cool prog!

[SatStorm]

Standard project the last 15 years: Music Videos
Parallel project: Convert my VHS tapes to DVDs best way possible
Future project: Timeshifting material I can't watch today, for the time I gonna have the free time to spare (probably after my retirement, in 35 years or so...)

TCM, a good way to develop a library of uncut, commercial free classic movies. Tomorrow, for example, Marx Brothers all day.

Just captured a video about assembling a kit aircraft. I'm converting it to a DVD from a VHS master tape for the client. (the aircraft manufacturer - www.ultralight.ca in case you're interested)

On that note, I could use a hand with a problem. See the thread entitled "large DV-AVI from WMM2 capture not working in PP1.0"

Absolutely!

Capturing the new Doctor Who and any worthwhile film/documentary/drama that may happen along.

Converting my Doctor Who VHS collection as well as a fair sized collection of off air VHS taken since 1985, to DVD. Some are re-doos as they were previously done as (x)VCDs.

Always on the lookout in charity shops and boot fairs for old British TV VHS releases as many may never reach DVD.

[Soopafresh]

"The Office" American version and "Rescue Me"

[sincostan]

Kind of nerdy, but I'm working on a "History Behind Super Smash Bros. Melee" video project.

Super Smash Bros. Melee has a lot of Nintendo history and nostalgia packed into it and I nearly own every game that it's based on, so I know exactly where each detail comes from.

So what I'm going to do is to show the original, then show how it's used in Melee. (That is...if I can get the dot crawling to clear up from my NES encodes. -___-)

Anybody doing anything not copied from somebody else's stuff?

I'm transferring a couple of concerts I videotaped with a borrow DV camcorder (permission from the musician to do this for my own personal use), making titles/menus for various songs, makes a nice archive to add to my collection of "authorized bootleg" stuff. Note: This musican SPECIFICALLY ALLOWS AUDIO TAPING OF HIS CONCERTS FOR NON-COMMERCIAL USE so it's cool. And I did ask to make sure it was okay to videotape.

Also I'm transferring and editing various footage and still photos I took while on holiday in Paris, London, and Helsinki over the last few years. No, I didn't go there all on the same trip. I wish I could afford to travel there again but with the euro and pound at such high rates compared to the dollar, I have to travel through memories this year. Sigh.

I'm capturing some footage that reveals who really killed JFK. Unfortunately the video is kind of old, especially when whats-his-name steps out from behind the bush with that rifle. Afterwards, I hope to move on to the video from the Hoffa-Cam.

[non-linear]

I've been working on a pile of stuff lately. I finished doing season 2 of Everwood and the first 15 episodes of season 3. I've also just completed the first 15 eps of Jack and Bobby and am working on season 2 of Summerland, the last 2 episodes of Charmed, the short lived series MDs, and I'm capturing video work I shot and edited in college.

I guess you can say I'm keeping busy with this!

Hey, when you get it done, send me a copy and I'll trade you for some of my Bigfoot footage!

[dfisher]

I'm transferring all my Beta tapes to DVD. So far I've done over 50. Quality has been very good. I've been dubbing from a Sony Super Beta Hi-Fi machine. I'm just about done.

[reboot]

I have 227 6 hour VHS tapes to do.
I now (finally) have 3 VCR's and 3 capture cards, with 3 hard drives (just for capture, OS is on the 4th) to do it all.
Eventually getting all this onto DVDR.

[rhegedus]

Pretty quiet at the moment - I'm converting some of my X-Files disk sets to VCD so I can get about 8 episodes on one disk and watch while I'm working away from home.

6th season of Top Gear starts May 22nd, so that'll be my next DVD project.

[anitract]

Hey just popping in (haven't been here for a while)...I STILL haven't started my home video project...as some may remember I was getting recommendations a while back.

Well I have everything purchased, but haven't had time to actually capture my VHS tapes yet. This seems to be the hardest thing to do...with so many other little projects I am doing, this big one is sitting over me like a very massive dark cloud.

So yea, I suck. ^_^

[dj4monie]

1) Converting my collection of Thunderbirds 2086 PAL and NTSC videos to DVD (still need a DVD burner) so until that day comes and I find a way to convert those PAL tapes without having to buy a $300 converting VCR.

I'm going to do that and learn how to make professional looking scene/chapter selection with looping screen shots.

2)Buy a good digital camcorder and document the build up of my car. So hush the doubter and shake them haters off me...

[rkgibbons]

I grew up in Edmonton during the Eighties, and I have a ton of VHS footage of Wayne Gretzky and the Edmonton Oilers during their glory days. I'm making a video tribute to the memories of my youth, all my old heroes, all the best moments.

Calling it "Camelot"

[BetaMaster]

I too am transferring all of my non-replaceable Beta tapes to DVD. I'm going to try to buy commercial DVDs where I can, but some of this stuff is not commercially available.

Right now, I have about 5 two hour projects on the go, and I only have a few more tapes to capture.

My main concern is that I couldn't get a capture from several of my tapes that were recorded on another Beta machine. I am going to try them on the ancient 1981 model Beta at my Mom's place, but if that doesn't work it's off to a place with professional equipment.

[FulciLives]

Right now I'm capturing my 4:3 WS (2.35:1 aspect ratio) LaserDisc of THE OMEGA MAN.

Look in this here other thread for pics from my capture: CLICK HERE

I think I got my threads mixed up. I was thinking of THIS thread when I posted in that there other thread (link provided above).

Duh
