And...honestly, kinda weird-looking? This was when I started to realise some visual limitations with the video capture set-up I'm currently using. Maybe it's the tape, as I've noticed a promo on one pre-mid-90's Disney VHS that was on a later tape came out with worse glare on the later tape but...as I don't delete the original uploads of these if I've uploaded them before, and indeed the original upload for *this* will be at the bottom of the description like before, you can proberbly tell that in some parts there's some serious wash-outedness with some of the colours at points and in others, this strange white glare. As if to tease me, there's a frame or so on fades where it seems like the "real" colours are visible when the video's mid-fade but I can't accurately recreate this in editing software no matter how much I tried, including with tweaking the video capture software I have on my computer *itself*...but it's inconsistant on which parts of the tape this will happen beyond when there's enough of the colour white on the screen and darkening the brightness/contrast in-post loses details that the set-up can capture...yet surely the times where this glare comes along has some detail loss occur anyway? I'm really confused. Anyone who knows better about this stuff than me, feel free to give me pointers in the comments. This video likely didn't find you first, you looked for this, so don't feel self-concious on being that dorky as it's too late. ;)

![Digimon: The Movie UK VHS Trailer Reel (2001)
[Now in 60fps!]
Theres been around 20 Pokemon movies and only one Digimon movie. I mean, that speaks volumes without context but when you consider the movie was just made up of 3 30-minute short films anyway, then OBVIOUSLY you can tell that this was done just because Fox wanted to reap the success of the first two Pokemon movies for themselves...its not that bad, though, but eh.
1) Warning text scroll [60fps]
2) 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment logo [60fps]
3) Action Man VHS Trailer [Very partially 60fps] (I laugh at this knowing I used to mishear what they sung as GREATEST ZERO OF THEM AAAAALL. Also, to international viewers: Action Man = G.I. Joe)

![(1/2) Channel 4 - Ads and Continuity (10th November 2024) [VHS]
Part 2(!): https://youtu.be/vSFHTs5CNRk
This is ridiculous and certainly not the way this stuff should be preserved given the Very, Very Obvious but...as soon as I plugged my TiVo box into my VCR to see how itd look, I got a temptation I couldnt stop myself from doing. So this is absolutely going to mess with people if this is still up online in a decade or so buuuuut, yep! First VHS recording of broadcast TV I or anyone in my family has done in 19 years. My god, what have I done? WHY have I done?
As much as this IS indeed an experiment, figured itd be a kick to someone other than myself if I uploaded how this turned out anyway...heck, this may not be the only upload like this but dont feel like its going to be a significant habit, as again...an advertisement on how to preserve stuff from this media era this is *not*... xD
CONTENTS:
00:00 Raylo ad (Partial) / Virgin Media ad (The QR code doesnt seem to work when presented in this form, but if it does and it leads to something scary due to error, let me know so I can scrub it out!)
00:34 O2 ad
01:34 Mercedes-Benz ad
02:04 Channel 4 ID sting / Promo for Walter Presents: Berlin Wall

Part 1 of 2.
SO, there *was* a time where Black Mirror was premired on regular broadcast TV and only a few countries really heard about it. Then Netflix became a thing. Who knew!
But yeah, this is White Bear specifically (Series 2, Ep 2). And errr...well, half of this stuff I expected them to advertise in-between this but other things...errr...whaaaat??
If a number below has an asterisk, its cause I replaced the audio to bat away the copyright claims. For the exact songs used, see the end of the description. Enjoy!
Anyway, CONTENTS:
1) Embarressing Bodies End Credits w/ Announcement
2) Complicit Coming Up Next on 4Seven Bumper

4) Muller Corner Greek-Style ad
5) Geordie Shore ad for MTV (Im sorry)
6) KFC ad

8) Channel 4 ident

12) Direct Line ad
13) Nationwide ad
14) Fosters ad (Really, really, REALLY not a fan of the extremely loud throat noises and the obnoxious angles but hey.)
15) Channel 4 sting / Shameless promo (...apparently James McAvoy was in this at one point!! Eh, not my thing but people can like what they want.)
16) Black Mirror Part Two and End of Part Two title cards / Channel 4 sting
17) Netflix advert w/ House of Cards (First Netflix Original drama so, not insignificant. Apologies for the reminder Kevin Spacey exists, though.)

20) Song for Marion UK TV Spot
