Jamie_Beatson Posted April 2, 2020 Report Share Posted April 2, 2020 Hi everyone, As previewed briefly last week, we've been working hard behind the scenes and are now ready to launch the WeArePerth Video Archive - www.weareperth.co.uk is the link! So far we have: - Highlights of (almost!) every game in the 17/18, 18/19 and 19/20 seasons. - Highlights and additional video content for every European game since 2012 - as well as highlights of the Saints v Monaco UEFA Cup games in 1999. - Highlights of every game in our 2014 Scottish Cup run as well as additional video content. - Classic matches from the McDiarmid Park and Muirton Park eras - Goal compilations, documentaries, interviews and other special features. All the highlights are archived with team lines and goalscorers and are fully searchable by year, competition, team or even by player. Comments are open and welcome on every game! There will be more content added as we go - with the intention being that we'll get back as far as we possibly can with season by season highlight videos that are in the public domain. I think there is almost a complete collection on YouTube back as far as maybe 2012/13 and fragmented stuff from before that. We may also, down the line, start adding the odd article here and there if the feeling takes us. This is also possibly dependent on how long we are all locked in our houses for! We're also looking for a bit of help. If you have video footage - even if it's on an old forgotten VHS - of a classic game from years ago, let us know. If you can point us in the direction of a video stashed away online in a hidden corner of the internet (Saints related obviously!), pass us the link. We'd be particularly keen to find any footage at all of the VPS Vaasa games in 1999, the 7-2 game against Dundee (There is a video of one of the goals on YouTube - surely somewhere the whole game exists!) or anything else along those lines. Finally, please give our Twitter and Facebook channels a like - https://twitter.com/wap1884 and https://www.facebook.com/WeArePerth/ - where we'll be posting links to new content when it is added and posting any other Saints related musings that come to mind. Thanks, as always, for your support! Jamie Abernethy Saint, blueheaven, Tranmere Saintee and 3 others 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueheaven Posted April 3, 2020 Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 Great stuff Jamie. I have some old Saints games from the 90s on VHS that are gathering dust somewhere - been thinking about putting them online for years but have done nothing about it, so would love to contribute them to this. Can anyone out there advise of the easiest way to transfer content from VHS to digital? Is there a reasonably cheap piece of equipment that anyone could recommend?

Jamie_Beatson Posted April 3, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 That’s something I’m looking in to! If I find something easy I’ll let you know. Just to say also I’m aware that some people (including me!) are getting the cookie “I accept” screen on every single page. This is something I’m aware of and am trying to remedy ASAP because it’s very bloody irritating! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boots or Max Speilman will transfer them for you around £ 20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been a few like that-the issue being you can’t tell until you try to play the video on an external site! I’ll look into that.

Great site Jamie. At least the virus has brought some good. Site should help sanity over next 3 months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_Beatson Posted April 3, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 The issue with the recurring "I Accept" pop up should now be resolved - if you continue to get it repeatedly please let me know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MySpazz Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 I have some leads to connect VHS to PC if anyone wants them. ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
