Here’s an interview with developer Reinhard, aka C0pperdragon. He’s the inventor of Lumacode, a way to get excellent quality video from 8-bit and earlier consoles / computers.

Here’s a podcast-style discussion about archiving 480i and interlaced video issues. Ever wonder how some 480i games could be 60fps…even if 480i runs at 29.97? Or how come camcorder footage isn’t actually 30p? And how do you even capture interlaced video!?!?!? Dan’s expertise in the field really added a good perspective to these topics and […]
