B&B: Old/Classic Discussion & Articles

Is anyone able to view/download anything from the vault at the moment? Thanks

[BoldRestless]

Not right now. Several people have noted the issue in the Y&R/B&B/GL Vault Updates thread.

Ah thank you, I'll know to look there next time instead of asking here.

Hello to everyone. I m Chris (Christos in greek) and i live in Athens. I 'm the guy who uploaded the episodes from RTL Lounge a few days ago. Although a B&B fan and viewer from the first episode that Greek TV broadcasted on 14-11-1988, i stopped follow it many years ago. But i still and always watch the old episodes. I recently discovered this forum and i 'm very glad. I try to watch the old episodes from RTL Lounge almost every day, since 2021 when i accidentally found it and i have started recording from episode 358. Although i have recorded hundreds of episodes, i 've missed many. Thanks to you guys and the Vault, i 've filled some gaps. I have also kept a few recordings of the first seasons from the original Greek TV broadcast that i ll be happy to share with you if you need them, but the quality is not that great (VHS quality). I, too, am waiting the continuation of 1998 episodes that you guys upload, as i missed them cause i had lost RTL Lounge for a few months. I have a few more episodes to upload from 1999, close to the ones i already uploaded a few days ago and if there are any 80's to mid 90's episodes that are missing from the Vault, i can check if i have them from RTL Lounge. Bravo and thanks again for the great job you are doing here.

Thank you! Do you have any episodes from June, July, or August 1999? I also greatly appreciate the new ones from 1999!

Oh wow, do you maybe have episodes 390, 561 and 678? That would be perfect in good quality

I have 561 and 678, i can upload them now, if that's alright with all of you.

[Maxim]

Thank you for all of the uploads! This is just amazing. 

[BoldRestless]

Was there something wrong with the existing versions? I can't remember that far back.

Thanks for everything.

I can't remember either but can only assume that there "muted song parts" in the currently uploaded versions. I think the original youtube uploads did not have any issues, but the later Videoland versions did (or vice versa).

[boldbeautifuluk]

Awesome! Could you please upload them? I really appreciate it.

390 is in the vault and on the official channel and look fine to me - unless someone can point out the issue. 561 that went up on the official channel had a long section that just had audio and a fixed frame - so that's great being replaced by Chris's version (thank you Chris). And the issue with 678 was that the official channel put a duplicate of 677 as their 678 (so they never "aired" 678) - one of the earliest of many issues, glitches, mislabeled episodes and skipped altogether episodes. Groan.
