I worked in Broadcasting in the 80s and 90s. There was nothing better than hearing those VTRs hiss in the background when they were running a program on the air. The NBC and CBS affiliate stations I worked at had those Cart machines which were somewhat problematic. When they got jammed, it was bad because they wouldn't just co m e out and run the next spot in the correct time. When we were transmitting from network (large old analog dish), it was very quiet in tje Master Control Room and a good time to eat or get a coffee.

At 2.53 and 3.40 are Ampex 2000B quadruplex machines which we had several and were very reliable. We cleaned the tape transport , including the heads , every time we put a different tape on. At 3.52 is an Ampex ACR25.The cassettes load using a vacuum. Initially, the cassettes were very unreliable and we had to do modifications to get all cassettes in a break to work without one failing to load. We did succeed and they worked well. Both the 2000B and ACR25 machines were very noisy as they needed air bearing and vacuum loading pumps. Here in the UK, the 2000B machines were changed in the 90s for 1" VPR2 machines. Our Telecine machines were Cintel flying spot machines which had continuous film motion and a 30,000 volt cathode ray tube to illuminate the film and three detectors for red , green and blue. X rays are generated at this high voltage.

At the station that I worked at over 30 years ago, we used the RCA TR70 machines. By that time, we were using recycled tape that you could physically see the oxide look like powder and clogged the heads. You could see four bands in the video and you knew it was coming. Sometimes I'd open the head guard and stick my finger nail very gently on the heads to keep them from completely clogging on screen. Those heads could take it. We also used Freon to clean the metal parts and alcohol to clean the rubber parts. When 2 inch was working properly it looked fantastic and when it wasn't, it looked awful. 1 inch was my favorite broadcast format, but I've seen U Matic, MII, Beta, DigiBeta, and DVC Pro. There's also the XDCam discs and I can't remember what the format that did HD tape in a cassette format. I believe that tape was half inch wide but the tapes were huge. I'm thinking M5, but I'm probably way off.

Replying 5years later. @ 2:53 Those quad machines are not 2000's. They are VR 1200's. The 2000's had the side monitor cart and the 1200's had the overhead monitor bridge as seen here. Basically the same tech. The 2000's had the A scope on the monitoring on the right. The 1200's did not have that feature. A scope displays for the VR 1200 were fed into the "B" input of the Tektronix waveform monitor on the monitor bridge. I used to work with 1200 quad machines at KLCS TV UHF Ch. 58 in Los Angeles from 1984 to 1992. We also had the AVR 2 quads which were also shown here at 5:34 . We also had a couple of AVR 3 quads for a short time. Those were the very last quads that Ampex manufactured. Very nice quads.

I think the "bloom" animation for the station ident at the end of the video probably came from a Scanimate production house in the US. The vision mixers/switchers were only really capable of cuts, mixes, wipes and key effects. I believe compilation tapes of Scanimate backgrounds were available for stations to purchase to "jazz up" their in-house titles, or the Scanimate production houses could do custom effects and idents on contract. Recently there have been a lot of Scanimate videos uploaded to KZfaq as one machine is being preserved by one of the original engineers.

I have a dual effect bus dual mix bus version from the same era as my coffee table! Sadly I didn't get the rack of switchgear (grumble grumble), just the control panel. Mine looks more like the version used in the commercial production suite. If I have a peek under the switch panel I'll update this comment with whatever I find.

@@WeWereYoungandCrazy Somewhere along the lines I read that MTV in the early days used the Ampex ACR-25 to playback music videos. Part of the choice on using the Ampex ACR-25 was that it had stereo playback, (useful once MTS stereo was launched a few short years later; it would have been known to be in development at the time) , plus I don't think anything at the time of MTV's lunch was capable of playing back to back tapes so quickly. Such as 10 sec interstitials. Considering the number of different videos they would play an hour, a video cart machine is the ideal choice, you could certainly load up an hours worth music videos on an ACR-25. Except for Michael Jackson Thriller, I suspect that was played separately. I also understand they had two of them for redundancy, I think they got them used at the time so having another as a backup was a good idea. The station I worked for early in my career was still as using an ACR-25 (affectionately called Jaws for obvious reasons) in early 90's. From that experience I recognize the typical playback errors you would see on an ACR-25, and I remember seeing the same kinds of playback glitches on MTV in the 80's, usually just as a cart begins playback. They were fascinating machines to watch in operation and listen to as well. The way the tape guided up the head along a long vertical window using negative pressure or suction, it was so fast.

@@marcusdamberger The errors were aplenty for sure. But much less than the RCA TCR-100 cart machine. A maintenance fix that today seems like an almost insurmountable feat of labor and determination, was to remove IC sockets and solder the ICs directly to the printed circuit boards. This fix came about after a few years of use and our engineers noticed resetting ICs corrected a lot of logic problems. This was due to an oxidation issue between the IC pins and the socket. I didn't work on this fix myself but observed the process. Our TV station had 2 ACR-25s and One was taken offline to get the resolder work and it's boards would be rotated back into the machine to be tested then on to the next board. A very long slow process but apparently worth the trouble in the long run. The second ACR-25 served as a backup to the primary machine and was often used in video production since multiple clips could be rapidly played back to back. Each ACR-25 had 2 playback transports. I recall there was a minimum clip length of 10 secs for one transport to load while the other transport played out. The ACR-25 used technology from the AVR-1 that consisted of vacuum columns, and vacuum capstan, so no pinch roller! It even had a shuttle knob. Many thanks to Mr Renz from TV-5 for keeping all those parts running as smooth as a Swiss watch. The best of the best.

Australia was late in getting colour television, in 1975. In Britain, colour television began in 1967 using the PAL 625 line system, but was only broadcasted on BBC 2. BBC 1 and ITV didn't receive 625 line or colour transmissions until November 1969 and even then, many parts of Britain, such as the South West (Cornwall and Dorset) and Cumberland (now Cumbria) didn't receive colour until 1972. British television wasn't fully in colour until about 1976, and the Channel Islands only got colour in 1976 due to the complexity of transmitting UHF 625 line broadcasts past France which was using the SECAM system and because of the long range it had to go from the Dorset coast to Fremont Point. Ireland got colour in 1970 or 1971, but many programmes were still in monochrome (black and white) 1976, when the last studio in RTE to get colour cameras was complete.
