not damaged where they need physical repair but one that needs special software for recovery. |

the wiki link gives you options for that, like magnetically scanning the disks |

Bad thing about digitizing vinyl, betamax, cassette, vhs, LD, 8-track, 8mm is that you have to let it play through all the way. So when you have hundreds of each it could take years of non stop digitizing before you finish |
|

I have about 200 VHS movies I'd someday like to rip. |
|
01:27

that's something that has torn me apart, to be honest |
|
01:28
🔗
|
arkhive |
What? |
|
01:28
🔗
|
winr4r |
mostly because VHS was never very good and pretty much all of it is on DVD in much better quality |

Coderjoe |
yet another thing I need to get around to accomplishing |
|
01:30
🔗
|
Coderjoe |
unfortunately, it would amount to massive amounts of disk space |
|
01:31
🔗
|
winr4r |
would it? |
|
01:31
🔗
|
winr4r |
i mean it would if you ripped them losslessly |
|
01:31
🔗
|
Coderjoe |
F lossy compression for archiving |
|
01:31
🔗
|
winr4r |
but that would be insane with VHS |
|
01:31
🔗
|
Coderjoe |
so you want to add loss on top of the VHS/SVHS loss |
|
01:32
🔗
|
winr4r |
Coderjoe: nobody, and i mean nobody, is going to dig up your corpse and put it on trial in 100 years time if they find that you only made a lossy copy of something |
|
01:32
🔗
|
Coderjoe |
and potentially more loss when your chosen lossy format goes out of style and you need to transcode |
|
01:33
🔗
|
winr4r |
and if it's the difference between archiving something and not archiving something, then i'll take "archiving something" even if it is lossy |
|
01:34
🔗
|
Coderjoe |
people are regularly referencing generation 4+ youtube clips and pointing out things that were "obviously modified" due to "the pixels", but which are just compression artifacts from being run through the coffee grinder 5 times |
|
01:34
🔗
|
winr4r |
yes |
|
01:34
🔗
|
winr4r |
those people are also very stupid |

Coderjoe |
i definitely will not argue against that |
|
01:35
🔗
|
winr4r |
i'm not saying a lossless copy wouldn't be better, but "don't archive something because if i do so in the only way that i can economically do so, some very stupid people will call it a hoax" seems odd to me |
