On Reddit we have r/dvdcollection, r/boutiquebluray, r/4kbluray, r/steelbook, r/vhs, etc but let's start simply with a community to cover all the forms of home video collecting.

So, do you feel nostalgic for a format? Are you looking forward to a release? Heard any exciting news? Want to show us your shelves? Then post away.

Hello everyone on Mbin, Lemmy and other parts of the Fediverse!

I have some family moments, (vacations, Christmases, birthdays, …) on VHS tape. I want to convert them in into modern, digital video files. I tried doing it with a GBS-C, but being French, those VHS are in SECAM, and neither GBS-Cs nor OSSC support thore formats. (At first it looked like I would only have the sound, but it ultimately killed my GBS-C.)

So, what do YOU use to preserve your old family memories in the modern, digital world? And does it support SECAM?

Thanks to all of those that can and will help me.

The TV card looks promising - I've never tried one myself - do let us know what you end up with, and how well it works - it's good to know about other options :)
