Honestly, to me the full quality 4K version looks just like you'd expect a modern music video to look. Looks pretty good. But the Digital8 version looks like it's actually from the early-mid 2000s, which makes it look like a professional and expensive music video that you'd probably see on MTV. I'm imagining flipping on MTV to get some background music while I'm working on an assignment for school, and getting distracted watching this music video. So I don't think it was pointless, it gives the video a new context, gives it a different feeling. It's another example of how making something "look worse" can actually improve it. And to me, that makes it worthwhile.

Some of my older computers from back in the day had FireWire (IEEE1394) built in. I always though "Oh cool, maybe I'll use that someday."... That day never came. Even the DV cams I had back then didn't use Firewire. I did have an iPod back then, but I was a broke teenager and those iPod-Firewire cables were not worth the slightly faster file transfer speeds.

Loved the video. The “algorithm” finally got you to me. Quick fun fact. One thing that made FireWire so much superior to USB back in the day isn’t just the speed. It took several revisions of USB before it could transfer data both directions simultaneously. That’s why FireWire was so much better for audio and video. It didn’t have to interrupt the data stream to send acknowledgment packets, telemetry, and control data back to the host. I worked in recording studios back in the day and all the audio interfaces were FireWire or they had their own PCI interfaces. It was super revolutionary at the time. 😊

DV was big, back when I was in film school. Firewire was bad, because it acter like a hot-swappable interface without being one. It was very ill-advised to be connecting DV devices together that were running, as it could fry the bridge chip. In college, a ton of our gear had fried ports. I even fried my own FireWire at home once. Fried the chip on my Sony camera. I still have my cables, one Sony and one Panasonic camera that record on Mini-DV. I preferred Digital 8 back in the day, because the tapes were interchangeable with Hi-8 camera I had in the early 90's. I edited in Premiere and Ulead Media Studio. I have so many videos on DV that I shot decades ago and never edited together. I made music videos that were never published. DV is pure nostalgia at this point.

Ah, memories. Actually I have a firewire 800 card not far from me right now, in my "Keep in case" box. I used it with my Drobo (Another retro thing!), before NAS and USB was "a thing". Funny how our perspectives of "fast" have changed - my current homelab setup would rival a whole 1997 small datacenter. Now I find 10Gb networks just passable. Personally I would use the tape footage sparingly, like an effect, and not smear it over everything; cut in and out of it when it makes an impact. Just me tho. I don't find DV footage triggers my nostalgia much - you want old-school go back to VHS! Analog was where it was at. (two turntables and a microphone).

I find DV is nostalgic because of the camera quality but not the tape quality. btw...

The enitre explanation of why firewire was the way to go only to simply have the port not work, thus looping around to having to record it in an analog format anyways is hysterical. Bummer it didn't work of course, but i think the added analog noise adds to the effect, that kind of noise is hard to fake convincingly, so i think it's a win in the end.

My family didn't have a computer with firewire but we did have an iPod with a firewire cord to USB so my uncle used to like put all the songs through the USB to firewire cord to his second gen iPod

Software in a box? Firewire? CDs? Amazing.

You're running Windows XP on that computer I just got to that part in the video. Somebody hug that computer please. Yes some of my equipment is still running Windows XP if anybody's wondering. I still prefer Windows XP but I use Windows 7 begrudgingly. I'm surprised you had trouble getting your USB to connect to Windows XP that's one problem I never had once was compatibility with a thumb drive/USB stick then again the only things I've used were a Dell laptop and that military ruggedized laptop those Dell laptops that run Windows XP are practically compatible with everything until you get into something like USB 3 but USB one and two usually work at least 90% of the time. My CD burners as an example are all USB pretty much everything I have cd DriveWise is USB;).

I still use a firewire cable with a firewire card on a modern computer to digitize old tapes with dvgrab in the terminal. I tried installing Pinnacle Studio 12 from my original physical copy to an older computer(2007 gaming PC) but it didn't let me run it fully for some reason. It didn't run anything more than an empty window with the basic UI elements.

Honestly just encoding the video down to 720x480 interlaced would have had the same effect. You also changed the look all togehter when you outputed using the composite out as it quality is equalivant to 480x360. DV Tape capture would have been a lot clearer than the Composite output. Still neat. I have my 2012 Mac Mini that still has Firewire 800.

Could get the exFAT driver for the XP using a CD, the Internet Archive should have a copy of the driver. Sucks about the Firewire port hope it could get a new one soldered on.
