At times like this, I usually watch #fanvids for inspiration.

OK time for stats on my #VHS #VideoTape #digitiztion project

1. I have 291 mainly #VHS videotapes of #fanvids (or #songtapes / #songvids

2. I received most of them back in the 2010s - my progress is glacial

3. I still have 178 more videotapes to convert. Some of these are duplicates but given the poor tape quality, the plan is to convert all of them

4. My lossless conversion setup no longer works (capture cards have grown worse over the years and the ones I had only worked with OS that no longer runs aka Win XP). So I am relying on DVD-Recorder to digitize what I can.

What is a songtape or a songvid?

I love #FandomHistory (my corner of #fandom is the part that reads & writes #fanfiction & edits #fanvids). Think #ArchiveOfOurOwn #AO3

Anyhow here is a post of gratitude to all the #volunteers who showed up, stayed & did the work.

I have been a fan of popular culture (Western TV/Movies) for
over 25+ years. I read & write #fanfiction, have made #fanvids (#vidding). As I slowly drift towards the setting sun, I focus most of my energy on #fandomhistory

But starting in 2016, my social media is now mainly #USPol and sadly since 2020 #COVID19 My #fandom content may be intermittent.
