SRT file made by Whisper. Note that I used the small model or it would take forever on my macbook, but that means the transcription won't be as good as it could be.

Re: Pedantic With The Beatles question...

It also changed to curly "t" for the first US issues in '87: https://www.discogs.com/release/2526482-The-Beatles-With-The-Beatles and also for all Capitol-related markets like this one from Brazil https://www.discogs.com/release/2903625-The-Beatles-With-The-Beatles/image/SW1hZ2U6NTIzNzE4NA...

Re: 60fps Anthology?

The reason that there are 50 fields per second in the UK and 59.94 per second in the US is because the refresh rate of the cathode ray tubes was controlled by the mains frequency: 50hz in the UK and 59.94hz in the US. Likewise the speed of the synchronous motors in the tape recorders of the day was...

Re: 60fps Anthology?

Not sure where the 50/60 Hz is coming from, PAL and NTSC runs at much higher signal frequencies… It’s just that when you divide its signal into fields (an array of lines the electron beam will use to fill a screen), you will find there are exactly 50 or 60 of them in a second. That’s where the ‘fps’...

Re: Harry And His Court Jesters: The Music Video

Also commonly used on ancient films like from the early 1900s, I don't get why do would train AI to just work with this kind of palette. It gives the impression people just wore either dark brown or dark blue clothing.

Re: Harry And His Court Jesters: The Music Video

Cool, thanks for the info and pictures. But yes still too cumbersome to get interesting moving outdoor shots for drama and the like. I wouldn't like to try perching that on my shoulder! :lol: I think the first Dr Who to use video for the outdoor sequences was Robot in about 1975. Can't remember wha...

Re: Harry And His Court Jesters: The Music Video

There were no "Outside Broadcast" video cameras in 1963 I don't think. The cameras were gigantic and cumbersome and mounted on a huge heavy plinth. They COULD drag these monstrosities outdoors for exceptional occasions like the crowning of Elizabeth which was shown live, but it was far ea...

Re: Harry And His Court Jesters: The Music Video

The picture is a bit ropey isn't it? Lots of interlacing lines which are burnt into the actual film print. ATV sure weren't as good at transferring video to film as the BBC. Still, remarkable that it survives at all. It's a telerecording(kinescope) of a 405 line tv isn't it? It all looks like that....
