In the mid-1990s, a science fiction series with 3D effects was created, which was even digitally archived. Now, the master tapes have resurfaced. But according to a report, it is still unclear how these can be played.https://www.notebookcheck.net/Digital-master-tapes-of-the-3D-series-Reboot-found-but-a-playback-device-is-lacking.788415.0.html
Might be worthwhile to check sound mastering studios, "stone soup" comes to mind (around lakeshore/eastern)-I recall delivering there once to a small office and seeing they were working on adding background music for a recognizable kids show on at the time they would need playback devices to locate where to add sounds.
I watched this series. In the game Unreal Tournament GOTY '99 you can find fan-made character model Megabyte from the TV show!
I'm sorry but do you use AI to write your 'Articles' much?
"Although the team has not found suitable playback device so far, it says it has already made good progress in raising awareness of the topic. After all, this is broadcast-quality equipment from a bygone era.

Maybe try playing them under your car tires like I do every copy of a Nickelback album i find in any format. Try that.

Humans putting articles together often move paragraphs around looking for the best flow. Sometimes, that means a paragraph will get pasted in twice by accident. These websites generally don't have much editorial oversight to correct simple errors.
"Of" is a preposition. The verb you're looking for is "would have." "Would of" is an eggcorn.
I wish it were AI making the stupid mistakes. Sadly, those are made by people.

Isn't notebookcheck a german site? Then it gets translated to English. It isn't uncommon for translation to be done paragraph by paragraph, than copy and pasted and accidentally pasting twice

I'm sorry but do you use AI to write your comments? It's "human reasoning would not (have) duplicated" and "would (have) edited it out". Of makes no sense at all.
This series was a huge part of my childhood i absolutely loved it!
They cannot find support because they post their request on the shittiest and deep amateur group in Facebook - VCR and VTR. You cannot ask shitty amateur group for professional advise/equipment. If they was not si stupid xthey can reach PROFFESIONAL community where they can find solution. Proffesional communities ARE NOT on digitalfaq and videohelp forums. They are mostly hidden but for moeebresearchbon profesional organization like AMIA, IASA, FIAT they can be found. But those guys and girls are young amateurs and I do not give them too much chance for success.

Haha yeah! Its fun to hate things! Let's destroy a master copy of something people enjoy, just because you don't! You're so cool, I bet you kick sandcastles at the beach too. It must be great being so popular, you must be really fun at parties.

You're amazing for this. Brilliant yet funny. "It's fun to hate things" so many layers to that alone 😂😂😂 tiny brain syndrome is on the rise apparently. Keep doing your part to quell it. Good work
Hello all,
Jacob here, the translator of this article.
As some readers have already suggested, I can indeed confirm that the mistake of the duplicate paragraph was an error on my part. This was corrected shortly after publishing & quality control, but another technical error on my part meant that the mistake was not immediately rectified.
I apologize for the confusion. I would also like to affirm that the NBC team is committed to providing our readership with high-quality articles.
Cheers,
Jacob F
This was my favorite show from the 90s. I watched every Saturday and then it just disappeared. I was devastated. I really hope this comes back.
I bet the YouTuber Techmoan has the D1 machine they need.
Hey Reboot was a great series with excellent animation. I certainly hope they can find a playing device for the tapes. I would love to watch it again or own copies.
Google: transfer d1 tapes
digitizingworld dot com
We can transfer D-1 tapes to DVD, .mp4, Apple ProRes, and other formats. Transfer between PAL and NTSC is also available. All transfers done in house.

CineLab in London, UK has a lot of D-Series Decks
Any links to rule34 content of this show?
Hi! You *might* want to check with a YouTuber called "The 8-Bit Guy". He has a video called "108 Rare and Bizarre Media Types", and if I'm not mistaken, he shows a D1 digital video cassette. I don't know if he has a line on an actual drive, but it couldn't hurt to check. I left a comment on his video linking to your article and asking him to get in touch. Good Luck!
Try contacting MPE (motion picture enterprise) in Manhattan NYC. They Rent professional equipment and I think they can help you with a D1 deck. I have worked with them over 25 years now. I can advise you further as I am one of the top Engineers in the country and am certified to calibrate and repair these decks. Send a email to me and we can talk more.
IF they want this for free, think again. Keeping these old decks alive and maintaining them cost thousands of dollars and tons of time. Time on machines equal wear and tear and I doubt they have a clean room to do it in which will also increase wear and tear. As in ZERO dust clean room. Also condition of the tapes? How have they been stored. they may benefit from 2-4 years in 25% humidity and 60 degree temperature. I worked on a 3/4 inch archiving project involving over 10,000 tapes. It is a bear. And yes, they will need an expert archivist. This is not the stuff for amateurs to monkey with.

Don't. That upscale is
terrible. He made it from the screwed up DVDs by Shout. If the documentary team gets what they need it will look
so much better than that amateur work.
Please do all you can to save this show! It is awesome not some Disney crap.
I have a contact if you need to find a d1 machine.
I can help you out. I have a machine to play those on. Reach out to me!
