A tribute by Mr Magnétoscope's brother (François)

[@tigervids453]

I just wanna let you know Francois and VCR King that we have not forgotten Mr. Magentoscope after these 3 years! 🙂

[@MrC-w7j]

Merci François pour les références à ma page ! Pour revenir à L'appareil que Louis-David m'avais donné , c'étais un Lecteur CD Technics qui faisais partie d'une chaine stereo Technics qu'il s'étais fait donner , d'ailleurs je l'ai encore , il est toujours fonctionnel , et même quand il va rendre l'âme , j'vais le garder , en mémoire à Louis-David . Super video en passant ! J'étais pas au courant qu'il étais un fan des bons vieux slashers (Jason , Freddie , etc.) .

[@foufoudfrank]

Merci de la précision! C'est parfait :)

I just found this channel the other day, and I find out he's no longer with us. I hope you all are doing better, he will remain with us forever as long as his videos still remain on youtube.

[@stefanBEAR98]

I just can't wrap my head around this. RIP youtube friend. Angels will get to enjoy all your new releases.

[@gbilo24]

I'll miss him. But I must say that your brother had really a unique KZbin channel and explains very well. He showed different mechanisms in which I was really interested. I'm really sad that such a special person is now gone from our world.

[@freddie9116]

i'm relatively new to his channel but i enjoyed and therapeutic for me to watch his content. I will miss seeing any more new content from him.

[@ZacharyCrowe]

This is fantastic, he'd love this. Good to meet you, he had an awesome brother.

More facts about Mr. Magnetoscope that we can see in the video: At 1min26s, you can see the famous black table, where almost all VCR videos were made. Under the table, a box and a bag, full of cassettes, and a blender he bought a few weeks ago. He smashed lamp bulbs in it. At 5min38s, the unopened cassette that Frank shows comes from Barcelona, Spain. Louis-David got it with the VCR he bought in a flea market in Barcelona. This cassette is made to be played in european devices. Unfortunately, the VCR was not working... At 6min04s, just in front of Frank's head, the little alcohol bottle used by Louis-David for cleaning VCR heads At 8min54s, you can see a part of a black and white drawing on the wall, in the upper left hand corner, which shows the Eiffel Tower: this was made by Louis-David at school. You can also see a part of another drawing, in color, made when he was a kid at primary school, just over the painting which shows a kid feeding a horse (painting made by Louis-David's grand father, whose b&w picture is directly left from the painting). He called this drawing "In my house on a rainy day". At 14min31s, the electronic thermostat just over the light switch was installed by Louis-David himself, who was electrician At 14min47s, Frank presents a fan that Louis-David received for his birthday. In fact, lamp bulbs were not the only things Louis-David was fond of when he was kid: he liked a lot playing with fans. And this interest never left him, as you can see. At 15min31s, the photo on the wall, yes, this is baby Louis-David! At 16min01s, in the lower right hand corner, on the shelf, you can see an empty white box. This is Louis-David's last purchase, made one week or two before he left us. He went with his car to the flea market in order to check if there was an interesting VCR. He didn't find one, but found this object. This is a connector allowing him to connect his wii to the TV in HDMI, for better graphics. This gave him a last pleasure, playing Mario Sunshine in high quality. You can see the gadget itself (a white rectangle) on the black table, at 1min40s. At 18min15s, you can see a white book, standing vertically, called "PANNES MAGNETOSCOPES". This is a book in French explaining how to repair VCRs. Unfortunately, he never went through it, as he was not ready yet to make deep electronic repairs. He was more "finding the solution on the Internet" than searching in a book. At 18min28s Mario seems to be running on Frank's back :-) Louis-David would have noticed that!

I'm glade you made this video i miss him a lot

[@stephaneblanchet6141]

C'est hot Franky, très gentil de ta part !! Merci !!

[@SouthernGameNerd]

I've planned on recapping my Mitsubishi HS-U54 VCR in honor of him.

[@perrobait1506]

RIP

[@thebetamaxman8905]

i would like to buy his betamax VCRs to keep and remember him by he was a good kid and friend he will be missed

[@foufoudfrank]

We will definitely take this demand into account!

[@plamondone]

Done 😃

[@BricksTVArchives]

To whoever is seeing the troll, please block the person. He is racist and heartless.

[@foufoudfrank]

Report him, his channel will end up being taken down at some point.

[@SouthernGameNerd]

@@foufoudfrank I just reported his ass.

[@NinteSegaRarew]

I'm sure that must be @I Hate VCR and Media Collectors and I reported and blocked him and that's it, cause you know as a reminder like a warning sign would say, do not feed the trolls.

[@NinteSegaRarew]

@@foufoudfrank Not only report him but also block him, leave him be as is, and try not to attack and bash him with hate comments. Reporting and blocking him is like destroying a troll's bridge so that way it doesn't come in contact with you. His channel getting taken down at some point is like the troll will stay exposed to the sunlight and then eventually turn into dust. That's the only way to defeat a troll.

[@CuhzLoCC]

1:04 That's me! Thanks for the shout-out!

[@tigervids453]

I'am sad he died

[@BricksTVArchives]

IKR, because today is National VCR Day and yesterday would be his 21st birthday if he were still here and everything.

[@tariqmahmood5282]

good luck bro

[@NinteSegaRarew]

Francois, I'm so very sorry for the loss of your brother. My heart and deepest condolences goes out to you. ❤🙏⚰ I have 2 questions: 1) How did he committed suicide? 2) How come he committed suicide?

[@BricksTVArchives]

To answer Number 2, he had depression.

[@NinteSegaRarew]

@@BricksTVArchives Well that explains it. 🤷‍♂️ Anyways I feel sorry for him.

[@SouthernGameNerd]

Wow, heartless person disliked, if you're seeing this comment, you are such a jerk.

[@BricksTVArchives]

Why would anyone dislike this?

[@TheVCRKing]

He's definitely going to Hell

[@BricksTVArchives]

Yeah, and Mr Magnetoscope had a good legacy and he did not do anything that would have him not be in heaven. Whoever disliked probably believes that you go to hell if you kill yourself, if that's true in his eyes then screw that person who disliked. The bottom line is that through KZbin Mr Magnetoscope had a good legacy and will not be forgotten in the VCR community.

[@BricksTVArchives]

@I Hate VCR and Media Collectors! You shut up, you are racist and heartless.

[@SouthernGameNerd]

@I Hate VCR and Media Collectors! You are acting stupid, The VCR King will have you in prison if you keep your trollish behavior up.

[@vellelog2008]

Sir i want 2 vcr.s and casstes

[@dollarablogue]

We give them away, you only have to pay for shipping. There is a video about that on this channel: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKDWfaGep9KaeKs

[@waltchan]

Maybe you should take over his video channel...

[@foufoudfrank]

I don't plan on doing it. I don't want to "steal" his channel, that constitutes his legacy. And moreover, I don't know much about VCRs :P

[@BricksTVArchives]

Will the VCRs still be kept or are they gonna be given away?

[@foufoudfrank]

We're not sure yet (I'm the guy in the video)

[@TheVCRKing]

We do know that the ones he loved the most are going to me.

[@plamondone]

@@TheVCRKing There's no question about that.

[@iraplaum4749]
