It seems like the next step here is for me to identify this PROM and attempt to dump it and disassemble it. And if you don't have a prom programer, you can burn one here. http://www.eprompro.com/Index.html
Re: OT - FTGH - U-Matic Tapes
I have been down that road myself. In the end I gave up, bought a Toshiba DVR630: https://www.amazon.ca/Toshiba-DVR630-HDMI-Recorder-Black/dp/B00GH7PP0U Yikes! I paid $179.95 for mine a few years back! It is a lot easier to sit back and let it do the work! (As long as you don't have to pay >1k$ for it!) cheers, Nigel On 30/01/2020 14:25, Christian Groessler via cctalk wrote: On 2020-01-30 20:11, Jason T via cctalk wrote: On Thu, Jan 30, 2020 at 11:49 AM Ethan O'Toole via cctalk wrote: I have a umatic deck and capture hardware if you wanted them converted.

I was going to offer the same but my plate is pretty full right now. If Ethan can do it, I'd be happy to see them online. And I know that Ethan's got a much nicer capture rig :) j
Re: OT - FTGH - U-Matic Tapes
To make this slightly less off topic, three of the U-Matic tapes I have are in an SRA Computer Training Library boxed set containing: MVS Concepts and Facilities - Mini-Course 2 - Introduction to Job Processing MVS Concepts and Facilities - Mini-Course 5 - MVS System Programs MVS: JCL Coding - Mini-Course 11 - Requesting Space for DASD Data Sets I found them in my current employer's document library years ago. Any player(s) we had were long gone, so I've never seen them. I have a umatic deck and capture hardware if you wanted them converted. - Ethan -- : Ethan O'Toole
