@paulrickards Oh wow. I remember when my dad replaced our old RCA VCR with a Sony model in the mid-90s, and Mom was excited that we could use the VCR+ codes in the TV guide to record shows instead of having to manually put the time periods in (she’d occasionally make errors). I haven't seen this app before, was it for the Macintosh TV? Or for a particular model of TV tuner card?

  • @smallsco Neither, I think it was just a utility someone made to encode/decode the VCR+ numbers for an actual VCR. You can find it here: https://discmaster.textfiles.com/browse/36069/Software%20Vault%20-%20The%20Collection%20for%20Macintosh.iso/Utilities/Home%20Utilities/MacVCR+
