I had the best luck using a bright light directly above the tv, Dim lights in the room and knocking down the exposure slightly on the digital camcorder.

I really enjoyed the revised video. I watch Star Trek on my roundie too as well as Bewitched, I Dream Of Jeannie, etc. I will have to set up my video camera and try to get a good video of it working. The problem I have is that any attempt to film or photograph a color tv picture always turns out too blue. I can't properly capture the warm color tones these round sets naturally have. I will try to work on it though. Was your picture tube rebuilt or original? I had Hawkeye rebuild mine.
