I found communities that will take off air TV recordings with commercials. They also love newscasts, PBS pledge drives, you name it as long as it was recorded off air.

Please feel free to forward this post to others who might be interested. Let's keep these old tapes (and ) tapes circulating. Links below

1. Send me a direct message. I collect and digitize science fiction / fantasy convention footage and fan videos or song tapes

or Stats

I've been combining my convention show playlists (thank you to every convention that has ever offered their playlists to their convention attendees in any format ...and an even bigger thank you to those using Google Sheets or Excel or some format that can be converted).

The Two Big Vidding Conventions

- USA (2002-2018), a fan run vidding convention showed approximately 4,737 vids.

- UK (2008-present), a similar vidding convention based in the UK has shown approximately 2,248 fanvids

You can find Vividcon's fanvid database here: vividcon.info/

VidUKon has combined its database with other conventions that run on the Conline.Club platform. You cannot search by convention year, but their dataset allows you to search by Fandom, Vidder and Title

OK time for stats on my project

1. I have 291 mainly videotapes of (or /

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?
