Do you have a preferred format/resolution/bitrate?
MP4, MOV, or MKV is preferred, although not a dealbreaker. As long as it plays, it’s fine.
other than that, I’m not too fussed about bitrate or resolution. Whatever you’ve got is appreciated!
Hi all,
just a quick one as submissions continue to come in (btw a HUGE thank you for those who submitted! )
Just a friendly reminder that the site focused on original recordings - ideally digitised from VHS, Beta, or direct TV captures.
Screen recordings (e.g. camera footage of a TV or monitor - especially if it’s from YouTube or other platforms) won’t be included. This is purely to maintain the quality and integrity of the archive, and to make sure archivists get the proper credit they deserve.
I’ll have updated the submission guidelines to make this clearer too - but figured it was worth mentioning here as we get more submissions.
Appreciate everyone’s support so far, thank you all!
hey all, apologies for the radio silence on my end! June has been a pretty busy month for me!
I am gonna get stuck in and do more work on the site soon, and hopefully by early July - launching!
Stay tuned, and thanks for the support!
All good mate - I’m sure everyone here is grateful for you taking the time when you can to get it up and running. Hopefully the launch goes smoothly once you get to that point.
