I recently had a chance to follow-up with Simon and Chad from the Domesday Duplicator / LD Decode projects, as well as Øyvind, who's been spearheading the VHS side of things.  For anyone unaware, this project is meant to create archival-quality "backups" of laserdiscs and VHS tapes, that will ensure the highest quality possible.  As-always, these interviews are also available on all podcast platforms - Just search your favorite app for "RetroRGB Domesday"!  Here's links to the project, as well as the previous interview we did:

Duplicator github:  https://github.com/simoninns/DomesdayDuplicator
ld-decode github:  https://github.com/happycube/ld-decode
VHS Decode Github:  https://github.com/oyvindln/vhs-decode

Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/2070493199906024/

Also, here's the first interview we did, in case anyone wants more info on the history of the project, as well as another awesome conversation with Simon and Chad: https://youtu.be/klK4UZ5nlqs

As always, these long-form podcasts are also available as a video, with links on ⁠retrorgb.com⁠
