I found a bluray region free player by Vsonic, I bought a DVD player in 2017 and it's region free. I hope this one also is region free, but this is my first bluray disc, so I need to consider it
Was it a good brand?I bought myself one of those hip 4k Ultra HD über bluray players that has been hacked to be region free.
... It was over $300. Ouch.
You can hook up composite, S-Video, or RF to it and then it shows up as a regular recording device you can use in your favorite video capture program.Anyway, how does that USB stick work exactly? You put it on your satellite/cable plug thingie and hit "record" and it records telly? Wat.
How is that working out? Last time I was in the market for TVs (a couple years ago) all the OLED TVs still had hideous problems with burn-in, so for someone who plays a lot of games it was a non-starter.my new LG OLED TV
I'm not totally up on this since the only light gun game I like is "Duck Hunt", but aren't they coming out with custom guns and/or software patches that allow the games to work on modern TVs?I recently bought a 25" CRT TV just to get light gun games working.

You say that like it's a bad thingbut all of that is a lot more expensive and convoluted than just buying a second hand CRT.
I would love to play some House of the Dead 2 again. I remember being really bummed out when I realized that my Dreamcast light gun had become useless with modern TVs :/
I imagine you'd have to use an HDMI cable and a box like this: https://www.analogue.co/dac/how do I go about hooking up my Macbook's Thunderbolt-out to my TV? My only input options are composite and S-Video.
I gave it a shot with a cheap converter from Amazon, I didn't mind the awful picture quality but I couldn't work around the awful flickering I was getting.But what could you even accomplish this way? Any TV that old isn't going to give you something readable if you plug a high-res computer into it.
I wish more people would rip their collections, my Dizziness of Lucifer VHS started failing on me before I could try to export it (thankfully it's easily available HQ online, but I can't help but think that some rare tapes are currently deteriorating or are already in a almost unviewable state) I started ripping random VHS tapes I got at flea markets for sampling purposes, and I have noticed how some tapes are really starting to break. (I know it might be multiple factors at fault, but tape deterioration is well documented online) My first Industrial Gender Unit VHS was already stuck in a B&W state for reasons unknown. So.. if you have a rare cassette, please consider ripping it for archiving purposes (no need to share it online.. just make a copy in case it deteriorates further) Products like these are pretty cheap and somewhat easy to use. (Also, consider ripping your cassette tapes before playing them much, since they deteriorate with each play)
