Used to work in a taperoom at a movie studio. Quadruplex was my absolute favorite to work with.

Nice! Great video. Also, Hovhannes (Ivan) Abgari Adamian (Armenian: Հովհաննես Աբգարի Ադամյան; 5 February 1879 - 12 September 1932) was an Armenian engineer, an author of more than 20 inventions. The first experimental color television was shown in London in 1928 based on Adamian's tricolor principle, and he is recognized as one of the founders of color television.

wow

You're watching City TV, channel 79, cable 7...the station that is EVERYWHERE!

As i understand the tvs oscillator recreates the color burst signal from the refrence point. So i guess that signal is unmodulated which it will then compare to the modulated signal.

Very nice

And this is old school, long obsolete, RF video. Imagine how HDMI works

IN THE PAST PEOPLE WERE SMARTER, WEREN´T THEY? no tik-tok explanation... this is an almost astronaut´s explanation. The best I´ve seen!

What channel was this on?

Noo está televisión sordo noo está vivo muerto televisión

Great video .Best explanation. Thank you .

Someone is always twisting the damn U-Links!

I was waiting for Silver Snail and you did not disappoint

The music in the first ident is from Neil Young's "Computer Age"

Can the sheet with transfer letters dry out and not be able to transfer

1986! Canada was so amazing back then. I miss it 💔 And Queen street was awesome.

Please lose the annoying and unnecessary muzak !

all fun and games you didnt show squat!...

I think my husband is in this video, I have to keep looking at that kid just to make sure. 🥰😍😘

I have a side gig digitizing home videos and was looking for a way to explain analog video (and why it's never going to look quite the same was digitized) to a client and this was the first one that came up, which gave me a chuckle. I had Dana as a prof while at Ryerson RTA and it's nice to hear his voice again. Not sure why so many of the good ones leave us before their time but I'm glad he left us a bunch of his knowledge.

Jaywalking on queen, that's entertainment.

Thank you so much sir for your packaged information.

Thanks for the post. Brings back a lot of memories. Bakka, silver snail, dragon lady . Many Saturday s spent going to each to buy my comics

Try to listen to "time for livin" from the beastie boys It helps if you think its an instrumental punk song hahahaha

Great video very engaging

Hello Dana Lee, Amazing video and quality! We would like to use part of this video for a student documentary at Humber College if you agree. I would like you to know that we will give you credits. And share with you the final result if you would like. Please let me know if it's okay with you. Have a great week!😃

And look at Toronto now....ugh.

What happens when you slowly adjust the syncing signals? Like when you send a video signal that is slower than usual?

I spent my 20's, 1991-1998 living and working in a rockbar called 'The Gasworks'. I had so much fun hanging on Queen st. and at 'The Bovine Sex Club'. I go back occasionally but find Toronto a very aggressive/violent city now. Everyone now-a-days are rent and mortgage broke. No one has disposable income to go out and spend on the city.

Thanks for uploading. Amazing quality video for the time. Brings back so many memory's of a great Toronto.

I would like to know about these VU Signal but to see the RF signal or how much is arriving at the receiver? And the sensitivity of, for example, whether it is uV or Mv or uAmp or Mv. I want to install it on an old radio. I appreciate any help.

Thanks 👍🏻!!

I lived there as an exchange student in 1978. What a great place. I still love it, but it looks very different these days.

Good video, but when working with a Video engineer the process will be different. The engineer controls the exposure.

I remember hearing this song like around after 3 or 4 in the morning

I miss Mark Dailey, he died way too young. Even though he was originally from Youngstown, Ohio, he was the voice of Toronto.

love this video. I played around with one, the best part is that if you wire them correctly the base and phone can transmit to each other as I discovered in my yt video on it.

I need one of these but they're so expensive......

they invented this before you could just look stuff up on the internet. just like that. fascinating

Hi Can we use the drop frame timecode to sync with UTC time? Meaning instead of starting from 00:00:00;00 it will start from current UTC time 18:45:10;16

They should still do this tbh. Literally what's the big deal, you gonna be miffed someone knows you're having ricaroni for dinner?

Excellent production. I'm working with these machines now

Toronto is like the Roman Empire now. In its decay era and the hordes keep coming. Leaders sit back and watch the flames and fan them.

this is the best video on the internet

Also make sure your iris is all the way open when calibrating back focus.

Fucking arctic monkeys cornerstone sent me here

i miss when technology was so much easier to “hack.” stealing cable was so easy,, now its a lot harder since its digital now and lots more security…

I still have a Quad head assembly from one of our old VR2000 machines, and a length of tape with the magnetic tracks made visible with magnetic fluid and protected with varnish. Did it almost 40 years ago and the tracks are still visible.

That was succinct and straightforward.
