www.videobarbershop.app/capabilities Updated the website with tons of information on what exactly Video Barbershop can do... like in the latest v1.8.5, it supports I-O Data's GV-USB2 as a valid capture device on the Mac. If you know you know. Pretty proud of getting that working.

videovector.app v1.6.0 was just updated with a ton of new features. If you aren't familiar with Video Vector, its a macOS 15.5+ app I made to generate complex 3D low-poly geometry and video art assets via a powerful and concise text file based scene language. It's FREE, so give it a try!

Been playing around with AI Agents and the MCP protocol they use to interface with apps. As a test case I used my app in development, Video Vector... and the results are shocking. Needless to say all apps I develop from now on will have agentic support. Looking at you @videobarbershop.bsky.social

After 10 days of having an app on the Mac App Store, I'm starting to think we are all just owners of storefronts in a dead mall, and the only true business out there are the ad services telling you to advertise in the dead mall. The impressions are just the other business owners wandering aimlessly

It’s encouraging Video Barbershop is making headway in discoverability. Searched “editing VHS on a Mac” and Reddit and Google had surprisingly delightful responses. 🤗

After quitting my job and developing this app over the last year, I’m proud to announce it has shipped and is now available! It’s been a long road, but I’m passionate about collecting and editing VHS and truly believe this is a great tool to add to any video editing pipeline, not just for VHS.

Was given this cassette tape of the radio show The Bickersons. Was not familiar with it. Despite a cat related bit that hasn’t aged well, the show is really funny and really amusing, as Don Ameche was a childhood favorite in Trading Places and Cocoon! Used my two apps to create the video.

Video Vector is getting feature packed with basically a shader language, but instead of pixel based is more geometry based. Three equations here (coloring background, lines and faces). That and simple vertex info. But basically just three equations.

Because I'm a serial YouTube channel creator, and we've been finding more and more funky cassette tapes at thrift stores... I present to newly created Audio Rescue Center (sister channel to Video Rescue Center) youtube.com/@audiorescue...

Got my SoundBeast video capture device, which I’m liking a lot, especially native file system support for OSX, which my ClearClick didn’t. However, it revealed that my SuperVHS VCR might be toast. So that’s super annoying. (see what I did there)

Estate sale. Three dozen VHS grabbed. 3 VCRs ruined from a moldy and wrinkled tape. Sigh. Was a long day, but everything is up and running again now… though the tape was too wrinkled to save even after it was clean.

Recent estate sale find, a commemorative CD of STS-135, the final space shuttle launch. Much to my surprise it also contained footage of the launch itself from multiple cameras onboard the reusable rockets themselves... the entire launch, detachment and falling back into the ocean. Incredible!

As a software engineer, I can’t tell you the joy in reorganizing code and discovering duplicate methods or taking highly specific code, coupled to one structure, then templatizing it out for general use. Just warms the soul.

Happy Holidays! If you need an activity for kids to do while they wait for Santa, here's a fun activity! Draw a reindeer by outlining their hands! I made this myself. No AI. So, if the parents are artists they should especially appreciate the creative activity!

a page explaining how to draw a reindeer using your hand as a template! Good old fashioned fun getting kids off the screen. Definitely not AI.

I love the erudite essays on YouTube breaking down various topics using words rarely heard in dive bars. I would love to make a video in that style for a weird VHS tape, “Shoji defiantly balances cultural racism and octogenarian malaise. His Engrish accent used as both ballast and ammunition…”

Pretty excited about this latest feature! Time will vary but it was doing a bang up job at about 8 mins per hour of video. And that was on my oldish M1 Mac Mini.

How long before the next generation thinks all these steel kitchen appliances are as antiquated as the 80’s saw the drab greens, yellows and oranges of 70’s kitchens? Cars and appliances are so boring in grey tones now that I feel like we are due for color explosions to devalue steel kitchens.

Tried capturing a video of using my video editing app and it worked well but the onslaught of “ums” and “uhs” made it clear I need to try again and bullet point an outline to refer to. Vamping is quite a skill.
