We have received a very nice set of Family Theater that will make a nice, new Maintained set. Is anyone interested in doing a short bio (1 page or so) of Father Patrick Peyton, the man behind the series? Apparently he wrote a biography in 1967 that has a few chapters about the series.
Thanks!

Re: OTRR Labs: Magazines

Bob Stepno
 

Thanks, Paul! Looking forward to checking out these new features! Date search sounds very useful for finding out magazine-writers responses to certain shows, including first and last episodes. 

And as a footnotes-with-hypertext junkie, I love being able to share links to sources when I write about things, so especially looking forward to the URL feature.

Onward!

Re: Family Theater missing episodes and upgrades

I have some of the low encodes in 32br which would be a minor upgrade.

Re: Hollywood Spotlight

Randy Watts
 

Ryan,

Here's a link to a Facebook post about "Hollywood Spotlight." Jerry Haendiges posted one of the shows last year. I sent the link because Liz McLeod makes a couple of interesting comments  (well, I thought they were interesting) about the series, Transco and Bob Burns.

I believe Sammy Jones had the four missing shows.

Here are the labels that came with the reels from which we took these shows. They are absolutely beautiful in quality, I will say.

Jerry's list is difficult to go off of because he doesn't list the first song for all the episodes. I have not yet approached him about the possibility of OTRR purchasing the missing four. Pete Cavallo has listened to them all and proofed the song titles which, for the most part are accurate on these labels with just some minor wording here or there. If you have any with different first songs it's worth sharing to see if they might be unique and among the four we don't have.

Re: OTRR Labs: Magazines

Update:

I have added a Date Search feature.
I have added a URL feature - at the bottom of every report is a Direct Link to that report.

As to the Sperdvac missing issues mentioned above, they currently work in this latest release.

I'll be posting a link to this new Research Tool on our Facebook group as well.

Thanks for all the comments,

I am working now to check to see what of the 540 original shows I am missing.  Most of my set is 32br.  Do we have improved versions of that?
Do we know what of that original set is missing from the library?  I have to head to bed but I know I have eps 1-50 complete for now.
