    I have a media converter made from a raspberry pi I use for all of my old consoles so I can play them on modern TVs. I bet it would work great for vhs tapes as well. Tape degradation might be a different issue though…

      Even the fresh tapes don’t hold up well to digital. That phosphor blur, small screen size and insane brightness made that picture look so much better than it really was. you spread that out to the large screen it looks rough.

      Video games with a lot of solid colors work well, but everything else is a horror show
