Re: New youtube videos

Good news! YouTube user kwvtads has sent me a DVD with all of the Prevue footage he had on his tape. If you've seen any of his videos then some of this may look a bit familiar. I've uploaded it into 2 parts here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVuI78nH6RY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMnl-grhq0c ...

Re: A Secret VHS tape.

Thank you so much for sharing these videos. I even laughed in the part when one of the kids said "Why are you taping this?" and also the part when the kids reacted to the boxing promo on the Pay-Per-View "Barker" channel. :lol:

Re: How Prevue Guide worked in my city

Back when I had cable, the Prevue Channel used to be one of my "go to" channels along with The Weather Channel. I remembered one day back in 1993 (shortly after when the blue grid made its deibut), while I was watching, the local channel listings disappeared mysteriously as it appeared on ...

Re: New youtube videos

Found a very interesting clip here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oeolMiEP1Yk Seems to be the format of Prevue Guide matched up to the look of the Prevue Channel. I live pretty close to where this video was taken and I remember that also in some Atlanta suburbs that they also had a guide that look...

Re: Digital Cable Subscribers: What is your guide?

I used to have Digital Cable, but we later switched to DirecTV in 2008. Anyways, I do kind of remembered TCI offering Prevue Interactive too since we used to have the same cable company in our area. Insight Communications later took over the system in my area between 2001-2007. I can't remember whe...

Re: New youtube videos

About 8:40. Listening to it again, it doesn't really speed up, I think I was just getting used to how it sounded slower! It does definitely stop as if the tape got stuck though... Maybe it was an slightly damaged VHS or Betamax tape or something. Dust, dirt, or any other debris could play a role on...
