r/tapeless

I’ve got a Panasonic nv ds55

I captured this video from an old camcorder using a video capture card connected to my phone via cables. The recording shows all the camcorder’s on-screen display.

I want to remove everything except the date at the bottom. Is there any software that can do this reliably?

I know the OSD is burned into the recorded video, so I’m not expecting a perfect result, but maybe some method based on masking, interpolation, or even AI inpainting?

Thanks for any tips!

dcr dvd 200 with cheap wide lens taped✌

Stumbled onto this camcorder while rummaging through some of my dad's boxes and after he agreed to let me keep it, the first thing in my mind was to make it tapeless.... thing is i don't know how/what i should buy to do it and i could really use some help

Was trying to mount my trv22 to a rig I had setup and accidentally tightened things a little too hard. Ive tried using pliers but they tear into the screw and I cant get any traction

hi! a few weeks ago i asked for help on how to go tapeless on my sony tr22e and got very nice comments on how to :)
just wanted to show that, after all, i didnt have to buy anything new.

the av to rca cable came with the camera, rca to usb i had to buy it last year to "record" my tapes when i was trying that and i had usb to usb c aroud. everything was attached using garden wire.

im also using an old android phone and a mount i bought a few years ago for my car but didnt work!
it isnt perfect but i think i will use it a lot more than i did and it is a little heavy but very manageable.

my only question: right now, when a few minutes go by, the camera turns down to save energy (cause im technically not recording). this is not a big issue for me but im wondering if there is a way to keep it on?
thanks !
