Digital master tapes of the 3D series 'Reboot' found, but a playback device is lacking

[Redaktion]

In the mid-1990s, a science fiction series with 3D effects was created, which was even digitally archived. Now, the master tapes have resurfaced. But according to a report, it is still unclear how these can be played.

Might be worthwhile to check sound mastering studios, "stone soup" comes to mind (around lakeshore/eastern)-I recall delivering there once to a small office and seeing they were working on adding background music for a recognizable kids show on at the time they would need playback devices to locate where to add sounds.

I watched this series.  In the game Unreal Tournament GOTY '99 you can find fan-made character model Megabyte from the TV show!

I'm sorry but do you use AI to write your 'Articles' much?

"Although the team has not found suitable playback device so far, it says it has already made good progress in raising awareness of the topic. After all, this is broadcast-quality equipment from a bygone era.

Humans putting articles together often move paragraphs around looking for the best flow. Sometimes, that means a paragraph will get pasted in twice by accident. These websites generally don't have much editorial oversight to correct simple errors.

"Of" is a preposition. The verb you're looking for is "would have." "Would of" is an eggcorn.

I wish it were AI making the stupid mistakes. Sadly, those are made by people.

Isn't notebookcheck a german site? Then it gets translated to English. It isn't uncommon for translation to be done paragraph by paragraph, than copy and pasted and accidentally pasting twice

I'm sorry but do you use AI to write your comments? It's "human reasoning would not (have) duplicated" and "would (have) edited it out". Of makes no sense at all.

This series was a huge part of my childhood i absolutely loved it!

They cannot find support because they post their request on the shittiest and deep amateur group in Facebook - VCR and VTR. You cannot ask shitty amateur group for professional advise/equipment. If they was not si stupid xthey can reach PROFFESIONAL community where they can find solution. Proffesional communities ARE NOT on digitalfaq and videohelp forums. They are mostly hidden but for moeebresearchbon profesional organization like AMIA, IASA, FIAT they can be found. But those guys and girls are young amateurs and I do not give them too much chance for success.

Haha yeah! Its fun to hate things! Let's destroy a master copy of something people enjoy, just because you don't! You're so cool, I bet you kick sandcastles at the beach too. It must be great being so popular, you must be really fun at parties.

You're amazing for this. Brilliant yet funny. "It's fun to hate things" so many layers to that alone 😂😂😂 tiny brain syndrome is on the rise apparently. Keep doing your part to quell it. Good work

Hello all,

Jacob here, the translator of this article.

As some readers have already suggested, I can indeed confirm that the mistake of the duplicate paragraph was an error on my part. This was corrected shortly after publishing & quality control, but another technical error on my part meant that the mistake was not immediately rectified.

I apologize for the confusion. I would also like to affirm that the NBC team is committed to providing our readership with high-quality articles.

Cheers,

Jacob F

This was my favorite show from the 90s.  I watched every Saturday and then it just disappeared.  I was devastated.  I really hope this comes back.
