Life as a House TV trailer (Nov. 2001)

Описание: The trailer from Life as a House as it aired on WTFX-TV in November of 2001.

The tape contains an LP recording of WTFX-TV Fox Philadelphia from November 6th, 2001, and yes, the colors really were that saturated. I probably should have toned them down before exporting, but I digress. At least I can always go back and make it nicer with the big FM RF video files to decode again. I'm led to believe this was done on an older VCR considering it is an LP recording and struggles a lot with the intense reds shown on many of these ads.

The programs that play go in order:
Seinfeld (unknown channel, briefly visible as the recorder flicks through their DVR)
The Simpsons "Treehouse of Horror XII"
24 (Series premiere, 12:00 AM - 1:00 AM)

Upscaled to 4K for YouTube using Lanczos4Resize and deinterlaced with QTGMC, all within StaxRip.
I do not claim to be well versed in the artform of analog media encoding, so I encourage anyone who knows better to give it a try themselves using the RF samples on the archive.org page: archive.org/details/vhs_fuji_fox_2001 (not yet available)

Rest of description is a direct paste from archive.org page:

This archive includes the FM RF copies of the analogue format (VHS). The media was captured with two modified VTImage capture cards (CXADC) at 40MSPS for the video signal, and 10MSPS for the VHS Hi-Fi audio.
This is the original signal off of the medium before processing past initial signal tracking and pre-amplification - a raw master digital copy or medium transfer.

Capture hardware used: 2x VTImage capture cards (CXADC) sampling at 40MSPS, overclocked via github.com/namazso/cxadc-clockgen-mod
VCR & Tap setup used: Sony SLV-677HF, PB RF pin 2 on CN261 for video FM RF, CN341 pin 3 for VHS Hi-Fi FM RF
TV System & Tape Format: NTSC, VHS LP
