MASTER ROSHI ALERT AT 5:02!
For best results with sound, use a high quality stereo system, a high quality computer speaker setup, or a high quality pair of stereo headphones or earbuds.
Although already uploaded by other members of the YouTube community, I have noted that many uploads of this video either have problems with the video quality or problems with the sound quality.
This is the second version of the 1983 demonstration of Sony Beta hi-fi. This program was used for demonstrating the sound quality of these VCRs when they first came out, starting with the SL-5200. This cassette also came bundled with other Sony Beta hi-fi VCRs before the advent of SuperBeta, such as the SL-2700 and the SL-2710.
This demonstration is complete with warnings and acknowledgements at the beginning and the Sony logo at the end.
The VCR used to play the cassette is a Sony SL-HF750 SuperBeta hi-fi VCR. Video capture was done on a Sony RDR-GX355 DVD Video Recorder. Deinterlacing and multipass transcoding into MP4 H.264 was done on a MacBook Pro running OS X Lion 10.7.3 using the MPEG Streamclip utility with the QuickTime MPEG2 component.
