Here’s an audio-only interview with Vint creator and Blur Busters contributor William Sokol Erhard, where we deep dive his awesome video software. The focus of the conversation is 24p video, BFI and interpolation (NOT the soap opera effect kind :p), however much of our discussion crosses over with gaming. And we even cover NVIDIA’s new Pulsar technology a bit as well! Basically, if you’re a video nerd, this is a must listen!
William just put Vint on sale, so if you’re curious to try it, now’s the time: https://willse.itch.io/vint

31 December 2025, 10:00 am - 1 hour 37 minutesInterview With VGHF's Frank Cifaldi
I recently had a chance to catch up with the Video Game History Foundation's Frank Cifaldi, to talk about some of the big stuff they've been working on. There's been a bunch of "lost" games tracked down and dumped, with a few more currently in-progress. And of course, there's also the 40th Anniversary of the NES, Phil's Sega Channel Documentary, as well as over 100 roms which were recovered from old Sega Channel assets...and plenty more!
