Brings back some nice memories. Here is the embedded video, if that's what you mean.

Don...Thank you for that video. It brought back so many memories of my family...parents-grandparents-uncles-aunts...all now departed but still those wonderful Christmas memories remain and keep their images alive.

 

Merry Christmas to you and your family.

That was very enjoyable - took me back to some great **** memories from the '50s. Thank you.

Love that Boston...

Very Nice, Thank You.

And here I pasted the embedded code. Guess I'll know an easier way next time.

Thanks Don for posting this video. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

 

Do you have any family coming over from the mainland to be with you for Christmas and New Years?

Very cool, Don!  Brings back many fond memories.  Mele Kalikimaka and Hau’oli Makahiki Hou to you and Vicky.

Hi Don, I can't see here at work so I will have to catch it at home later tonight. Thank you and have a Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Super video Don!  Boy, that's just about the way it really was in yesteryear.  Loved the part with the Boston Terrier (guess who else has one - yeah).

 

Happy Holidays to all!

Merry Christmas Don and Vicky.

Happy Holidays to you and your family...and to our OGR family....

DoubleDaz, I hit the green film, paste in the URL, and pull down "type" to quicktime. I get a quicktime "Q" but no video. Thanks Don

I've never done it that way, but I'll try it in a few minutes to see what I get. Were you able to view the one I embedded?

Don,

 

Merry Christmas and thank you for posting. Watching old family movies is fun, even if it isn't your own family. Nice to get a glimpse back in time.

Yes it works very well. I think I'm missing something here. Mybe a brain. Thanks don

Wonderful, Don.

Thank you.

MERRY CHRISTMAS.  Thank-you so very much.  Brings back so many memories of Christmases past.  Happy holidays to all.  Jim R.

Merry Christmas Don, 

 

That was great.  I really enjoyed it.  From the technical point of view it is great to watch those movies when shooting indoors with artificial light was an art in and of itself.  My friends and I shot 8mm before we got our hand on our first VHS camera. 

Not sure what to tell you. The first time I tried, I got some spinning gears telling me to wait. I didn't wait to see how long, but the next try resulted in my previous post. I tried a few more times and found that it doesn't matter what you select, it always adds the iframe code. That makes some sense since it's a You Tube video. BTW, the first time it put a QT icon in the preview box, but the other tries all placed the same blank video box until I posted it.

Man, I'm going to loose my Road Forman status if I can't figure this out. Thanks D.Daz

I'm working with a Mac Pro if that makes any difference. Don

TMack, most of this was shot with a two light bar if you remember those. It was all shot in 16mm and very well I should say. Don

What happens when you just paste the URL and post it? I don't think you have to worry about quicktime unless this was a quicktime video to begin with. Obviously, it's not a quicktime video on You Tube, is it?

Don, very nice, thank you very much, sure does bring back great memories

Beautiful work Don. Thank you very much.

 

May I wish you, your whole family, and all members of the OGR forum, a wonderful christmas, and a happy and healthy new year. 

Wonderful video, Don! Thanks for posting it, and Merry Christmas to you and yours and all on the Forum!

There is only one thing i can say,fannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnntastic!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

That was nice

Bryan

Great stuff! I wish someone had been shooting film when I was a kid in the 40s-50s (home movies w/color film begain in 1939). I have our family life, starting in 1970, on film, then VHS video, and now digital video. I can not believe its been 42 years!

WOW!!!You have captured my memories in that video.Thank you and Merry Christmas to you and your entire family.

Outstanding video, nearly brought a tear to my eye, in a good way. 

 

Yup, my "Spirit-o-meter" is now officially pegged at 11 on a 1-10 scale.  Thank you sir for doing this.  Merry Christmas!

Very nice! From East TN we wish you and yours a very Marry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Yeah, same here.  I envy the fact that the OP's family was shooting color home movies at Christmastime.  All my family could afford in the early Fifties was a Brownie box camera, with B&W 127 film, and for some reason, we seldom used it on Christmas.

 

But it's good to see holiday memories, even someone else's, on film.  Thanks for posting.
