Interview With An Electronics Recycler

Here's an interview with Jason, who runs an electronics recycling business. We met at Retro World Expo this year and I really wanted to chat with him - I was hoping to tech him about rescuing certain CRT's and he gave us a pretty cool insight into what electronic recycling is like.

Domesday LaserDisc and VHS Archival Project Interview

I recently had a chance to follow-up with Simon and Chad from the Domesday Duplicator / LD Decode projects, as well as Øyvind, who's been spearheading the VHS side of things. For anyone unaware, this project is meant to create archival-quality "backups" of laserdiscs and VHS tapes, that will ensure the highest quality possible. As-always, these interviews are also available on all podcast platforms - Just search your favorite app for "RetroRGB Domesday"! Here's links to the project, as well as the previous interview we did: Duplicator github: https://github.com/simoninns/DomesdayDuplicatorld-decode github: https://github.com/happycube/ld-decodeVHS Decode Github: https://github.com/oyvindln/vhs-decodeDiscord: https://discord.gg/pVVrrxdWebsite: https://www.domesday86.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2070493199906024/ Also, here's the first interview we did, in case anyone wants more info on the history of the project, as well as another awesome conversation with Simon and Chad: https://youtu.be/klK4UZ5nlqs As always, these long-form podcasts are also available as a video, with links on ⁠retrorgb.com⁠ Please consider supporting this channel via monthly support services, tips, or even just by using our affiliate links to purchase things you were already going to buy anyway, at no extra cost to you: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.retrorgb.com/support.html⁠

Discussing Video Conversion with Simon Aarons

I recently had an audio-only discussion/podcast with Simon Aarons, creator of the Brovicon Video Converter. We discussed how the software works, why it's so helpful that he made a graphical front-end to existing software...and just chatted about video conversion. If you've ever wanted to convert video you've recorded or ripped, this will most likely interest you - "Just slide up a chair" and come hang out while we chat. If video conversion isn't your thing at all, this one probably isn't for you ;p Brovicon: https://github.com/simontime/BroviconFollow Simon: https://twitter.com/ItsSimonTimeAviSynth+ (install before using): https://github.com/AviSynth/AviSynthPlus/releases/ As always, these long-form podcasts are also available as a video, with links on ⁠⁠retrorgb.com⁠⁠ Please consider supporting this channel via monthly support services, tips, or even just by using our affiliate links to purchase things you were already going to buy anyway, at no extra cost to you: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.retrorgb.com/support.html⁠ Simon and I discussed a using AVIDemux to cut video files at keyframes without re-rendering, as well as a specific model of "DVD recorder" that does a great job with (broadcast) analog video.

Interview with Fixel

Here's an interview with developer Felix, also known as "Fixel": Creator of the FreeDO emulator, as well as some impressive ODE and HDMI mods. I really enjoyed hearing about reverse engineering the 3DO, as well as getting a full rundown of all the projects he's currently working on. If you're a retro-gaming fan, I'm sure you'll get just as excited as I did, hearing about everything that's coming this year!

Interview With Wizzo

Here's an interview with MiSTer script creator Callan, who you might know as Wizzo. I asked that he join me for a podcast, as I wanted to go over all the really helpful tools he's created. I'd be willing to bet every MiSTer user would be interested in at least ONE of his scripts, so give it a listen and decide for yourself! Support Wizzo: https://ko-fi.com/wizzo Wizzo's Scripts: https://github.com/wizzomafizzo/mrext To install the scripts, you can download them from his github and copy them right to your MiSTer's "scripts" folder. You can also enable his scripts via update_all, however not all will be available.

Interview With TapamN - 480p Dreamcast Patches Solved!

I recently had the opportunity to talk with Alex, aka TapamN - The developer who did what many people in the retro scene thought was impossible: Patching certain 480i-only games to run in 480p! We discussed the discovery, as well as Dreamcast video output formats, resolutions, filters and how all might be able to be manipulated for our setups. This is an audio-only interview, however I have it on YouTube above for anyone who prefers - Everyone else can find it on all podcast services, by searching for "RetroRGB TapamN": Forum Thread: https://www.dreamcast-talk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=16508List of 480p Patchable DC Games: https://consolemods.org/wiki/Dreamcast:List_of_VGA_Games_and_Patches This was an awesome conversation and I hope other dev's apply what was learned to other Dreamcast games! I'd love to see an open source database put together, that would allow ODE's to toggle 240 / 480p support, as well as de-dithering, anti-aliasing...basically, having a GUI interface to toggle these options would be amazing! ...and please don't discount the "240p" conversation! There's many people out there who own an amazing 15KHz-only CRT that would love to play some of these games in progressive scan. I'm really excited to see what comes next for Dreamcast fans!
