South Park & My 4:3 Cartoon DVDs

I’m finding out DVDs look great on this little tv. Only 4:3 tho, widescreen looks hysterical on it.

Really clean marketplace pickup

It’s a Philips Magnavox PR0930X301, mono audio 9in crt. I’ve been looking for a small crt ever since i sold my 13in Sharp I had a while back. Really happy with it. I’ll be posting alot more stuff on it lol

Yard sale find!

I’ve been looking for a DVD tower for a while, everything online is over $50 and I couldn’t find one locally untill today. Only $2. Immediately put some of my favorites in there 🙏

Sorry for lack of posting

I’ve been working a lot more often, and I’m still currently looking for a new CRT as only the S-video on this works. But in the meantime hears some more Super Mario 64.

Some of the DVDs brought from home & a pickup

These are ones I bought a while ago and couldn’t bring with me when I essentially moved. Sister was kind enough to bring some up when she visited. My Dad grew up watching Beavis and Butt-head, so I had to grab the complete collection when I saw it. Only $16, and all the discs are resurfaced.

Some bad luck

Once again sorry for lack of posts. After a lot of testing and trying different things, I’ve confirmed the AV ports on this tv are screwed. Something I could’ve avoided if I tested the ports before the sale. Guy said they were good. I can only get a clean image with S-video, and the only S-video cord I have is for my N64, so no ps2 or dvd/vhs. I’m going to be on the lookout for a Trinitron or something that I can test before buying.

I love the inserts you get with Physical Media

Whether it’s a DVD catalog, an ad for merchandise, or information about the film, I love it. I have a lot more, this is just what I dug up lol. Missing my Music Cash coupon I got from some sealed Sony blank tapes.

Picked up a 20in Panasonic

Works great with the N64. I actually don’t know the model #, the tag on the back came off. But the stereo sounds very nice, it’s got bright colors too. This is with s-video. I’ll post some nicer videos soon

Was watching Superbad this morning

This is one of my favorite movies, i know I say that alot but this one holds a special place in my heart. King of the Raunchy 2000s comedies. I actually picked up this specific DVD at a Las Vegas Goodwill.

Update on the N64

Literally returned the N64 I ordered and bought a new refurbished & tested one at a local game store, tried everything and this was still the result. The issue was my TruFlat, so I sold it lol. Currently in talks to get a new Panasonic 20in

Family visiting, they brought my PS3 🕺

Forever ago my mon threw out our PS3 cases and put them in a crappy booklet that scratched them up. These are all that remain lol, plus the copies I’ve bought somewhat recently. It’s also got PS3 HEN on it for playing games I can’t find or afford.

Issues with video signal

This specific N64 has worked on 2 other semi-modern TVs that have av ports, but not on my crt. It’s an RCA F20TF10, i play my ps2 on this and watch tapes, the ports are good. I’ve tried multiple different av connectors and S-video. I’ve heard other people say the n64 just won’t work with some TVs. I may purchase a new crt soon but I have no idea what tv would work with my n64. If anyone can offer any advice I’d appreciate it

u/big_mcchicken06 — 2 months ago

N64 arrived but theres issues

It’s doing this with another game as well. Tried cleaning and messing with the jumper pack, no change. Looking into a new video cord, hoping it’s not the games. If not tho theres a 30 day return policy so I can just get my money back.

u/big_mcchicken06 — 2 months ago

Peter, what are you doing?

Sorry for not posting in 10 days, been very busy. I’ve got family visiting tmr and I’ve managed to get them to bring a lot of my tapes/dvds & stuff up with them. So I’ll be posting a lot of that soon. This is another older video of my wega ✨

Which is your favorite?

I honestly can’t choose thats why I’d like to hear some outside input. These are my top 3 crime/mob movies, next to The Godfather and The Departed. A Bronx tale has always stood out to me tho, let me know what you’d pick!

MTVs first broadcast 1981

Back when bands and musicians weren’t really doing music videos so they just showed live performances. And when they did do a video it was just the band playing in a room lol

Working on episode transitions

Trying to get it so theres a clean transition between episodes and none of that “no signal”. Maybe pausing the recording instead of stopping it would work.
