Request Looking for original RealMedia (.rm) recordings from the official FOX.com Malcolm in the Middle website, circa 2001–2006

• Upvotes

lostmediawiki.comOpen)

So I've been doing a deep dive into the original Malcolm in the Middle website on FOX.com using the Wayback Machine, and I think I've stumbled upon a surprisingly obscure piece of lost media that barely anyone seems to remember. Back in the early 2000s, FOX's official Malcolm website hosted a bunch of exclusive videos and audio recordings featuring the actual cast and characters. These weren't just ordinary episode clips or DVD extras. Some were original comedy sketches made for the website. Some of the videos included:

- Family Therapy: Three sketches featuring the family attending therapy (6 minutes, 54 seconds total).

- Conversations with Craig: Three videos featuring Craig making recordings about Lois, his cat Jellybean, and love poems (2 minutes, 58 seconds).

- Meet the Kenarbans: A 2-minute mock documentary about Stevie's family.

- Bryan in the Buff: A 1-minute, 11-second video featuring Bryan Cranston.

- Boys Will Be Boys: Short videos of Justin Berfield doing yo-yo tricks, Frankie Muniz playing basketball, and Erik Per Sullivan playing kickball.

- Director's Cut: A 54-second commentary by director Ken Kwapis about the Season 2 episode "Carnival."

- Stevie Says: Five extremely short videos of Stevie giving advice to viewers.

- Bloopers: A 1-minute, 33-second gag reel.

There were also several audio recordings featuring Bryan Cranston doing impressions, the younger actors singing, and other random comedy bits. Altogether, the website had approximately 22 minutes and 15 seconds of documented audio and video content. Here's where things get interesting. The original FOX website was still online as late as August 2010, more than four years after the series ended. You can actually browse parts of it through the Wayback Machine today:

https://web.archive.org/web/20100512162407/http://www.fox.com/malcolm/family/index.htm

Unfortunately, the actual recordings were hosted using RealPlayer, and the streaming servers no longer work. The Wayback Machine preserved the webpages and some tiny RealPlayer shortcut files, but apparently not the actual videos. I also found two old discussions on the Malcolm in the Middle UK forums. In September 2005, an administrator discussed the videos and even mentioned a clip of Malcolm playing guitar:

https://malcolminthemiddle.co.uk/forum/index.php?threads/videos-on-fox-sites.544/

Then, in May 2010, another user asked why none of the FOX website videos worked anymore. An administrator replied that FOX had removed them years earlier and that he didn't know of anyone who had saved them:

https://malcolminthemiddle.co.uk/forum/index.php?threads/videos-on-official-site.2806/

So apparently these videos were already considered missing while the original website was still online.

I've searched YouTube, Dailymotion, old fan sites, the Internet Archive, and various other places, including uploads from the 2000s, but haven't been able to verify a surviving copy of any of the original recordings. I've also written a Lost Media Wiki article documenting everything I've found, including the original video titles, runtimes, filenames, and archived sources:

https://lostmediawiki.com/Malcolm_in_the_Middle_Lost_Fox.com_Promo_Clips_(Lost_clips_from_the_old_official_Malcolm_in_the_Middle_Fox.com_site,_2001-2010))

My question is: Does anyone here remember watching these videos on FOX.com back in the day? And more importantly, did anyone ever download them, screen-record them, or save copies to an old computer, CD-R, DVD-R, or hard drive? Even a single surviving clip would be a pretty significant discovery, especially since some of these appear to have been original sketches that never aired on television. It's kind of insane that a show as popular as Malcolm in the Middle could have over 22 minutes of official bonus material available online for years, only for the recordings to seemingly disappear completely. Hopefully somebody out there remembers these or knows where copies might exist!

Request Matt Bradley, rare pulp fiction UPD

0 Upvotes

My previous post was deleted by Reddit (probably for spamming other communities). In it, I requested access to the text “lesbian lane” written by Matt Bradley. This update concerns the eBay website; I’ve been monitoring the listings for over a month, and no one was interested in them, but exactly on the day my posts were published, someone added the book to their cart. I’m worried that if this is my only chance to find the book, the person won’t be able to contact me, so I’m updating the post. If this is someone from Reddit, you can contact me via email at airdair3@ gmail. com. For context: I’m trying to find the text of a rare book by Matt Bradley. At the moment, I can’t buy it due to issues with delivery and payment, but the text is incredibly important for my research. If anyone has an electronic version (even photos of the pages would be fine), that would help me. The book is in the public domain, so everything is fine from a legal standpoint. If you’re going to try to help, be sure to save my email — Reddit deletes my posts.

Request Looking for my episode of MTV's Parental Control (2006-2007) - The wood chipper fruit date

4 Upvotes

Hello! I've been looking for years for an old episode of MTV's Parental Control that I was actually on back in the day, probably around 2006 or 2007. My dad managed to rip a terrible copy directly from the TV when it aired, but the hard drive it was on died and the file became lost to me. I've checked all of MTV's official uploads on YouTube, Soulseek, and standard torrents, but everyone only seems to have season 7. Since IMDb doesn't even have descriptions written in for most of the early episodes, I'm hoping someone here has a massive stash of mid-2000s MTV afternoon blocks saved on a drive.

In my episode, I am a kid with long blonde hair, I was wearing black with blue accent Nike low tops, and I did a levitation trick during the interview process. The other dater was a guy with short brown hair, and the girl we were dating had, I believe, blonde hair and her parents were kinda hippies. For my date, I ended up taking her to a fruit stand where we picked out a bunch of fruits, smashed a few of them for a "fruit salad," and then we got a wood chipper and started throwing the fruit in there. The other guy's date was them going on a boat, I don't remember much else about it. At the end, the girl didn't end up picking either of us and she stuck with her boyfriend.

I know it's a long shot since it's true lost media at this point, but if anyone has a folder of the early seasons or old recorded TV blocks from that era, please let me know or hit me up in the DMs. Thanks.

Request WTB / REQUEST] Bigger (1991) - Dir. Paul Norman (VHS Tape or Digital Rip)

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I am looking for the movie "Bigger", directed by Paul Norman and released in 1991.

Ideally, I am trying to track down an original VHS copy for my physical collection. However, since this title is extremely rare, I am also completely open to getting a digital rip (MP4, MKV, ISO, etc.) if anyone has already digitized it.

If you own the physical tape and are willing to sell it (or if you can provide a high-quality digital copy/transfer of it), please send me a PM. I am more than happy to pay for your time, the file, or cover international shipping costs for the physical media if needed.

Thank you so much for your time and help in preserving this rare title!

Request [Request] Deleted Serenity ASMR Audio YouTube Videos (2021–2022)

1 Upvotes

I know this is probably a long shot, but I’m trying to find archived copies of deleted videos from the Serenity ASMR Audio YouTube channel, which was active around 2021–2022.

The channel has since been deleted. Unfortunately, most of the archived YouTube pages I’ve found only preserve the page itself, not the actual video. I’m hoping someone might have downloaded some of these videos before they disappeared.

I’ve found archived pages for the following two videos:

  • ASMR - Blue Moon Offer [F4M] [Werewolf’s Girlfriend] [Offer] [Blue Moon] [Argument] [Change] [Support]
  • The Dragons of Our Lives [F4M] [Dragon] [Representation] [Depression] [Mental Health] [In the Head]

The second video has an Internet Archive entry here:

https://archive.org/details/the-dragons-of-our-lives-f-4-m-dragonrepresentationdepressionmental-healthin-the-head-you-tube

These are the only two I’ve been able to locate so far.

Links and leads

The Archivarix search turned up another deleted video titled “A Wonder” [F4M] [Waking from a Coma] [Engagement] [Slice of Life] [Established Relationship] [Hospital]. However, I haven’t been able to locate an actual copy of it.

I tried The Wayback Machine. The archived YouTube pages exist, but the videos themselves aren’t playable or downloadable. Instead, I get a gray video area with the message, “We have not been able to archive the video associated with this Youtube page.”

I also tried Filmot where I found transcripts and metadata for some videos. I was able to recover a couple of archived items, but I haven’t found the rest of the audios.

I had no luck with ASMRIndex.

On the site Archivarix Tube I found thumbnails, metadata, and deleted-video listings, but I haven’t located playable copies in its video section.

I also looked at YouTube Searches and I searched for the titles to see whether anyone had reuploaded them, but I couldn’t find any reposts at all.

Does anyone happen to have any downloaded videos from Serenity ASMR Audio, or know of another archive, backup, or preservation project that might have them?

Even a single recovered video would be greatly appreciated. I’m particularly interested in finding actual audio/video files, rather than just metadata, thumbnails, or transcripts.

I realize these videos may be gone permanently, but I figured it was worth asking in case someone saved them years ago.

Thanks for any help.

A few years ago they filmed two new seasons of Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction, but they only aired in Germany, despite being recorded in English.

Anyone know where I can find the new seasons (which aired from 2021-2025)? Season 5 had five episodes, Season 6 had seven. I'd love to have them in English, but I'd be okay with German dubs if that's all that's out there.

Request [WANTED] Pioneer GEX-XMP3 firmware V1.19 — the actual firmware file, not the installer

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone I’m trying to rescue a Pioneer GEX-XMP3 (the portable XM2go unit, NOT the Audiovox XMp3) stuck on firmware 1.08, which is buggy as crap.
The official update servers (fwupdt.xmradio.com) are long dead, and every update tool — the XM2go Music Manager, the standalone XM Update Tool — just downloads the firmware at update time. Nothing has it baked in. XMFan is gone too. So the only way this radio ever sees V1.19 again is if a copy of the actual firmware file still exists somewhere.
If you ever updated a GEX-XMP3 back in the day, please check:
1. ⁠Your old PCs — the updater downloaded the firmware into the Windows Temp folder during updates. If you still have that machine (or a disk image/backup), the file might still be sitting there. Also worth a look: Application Data\XM Satellite Radio\XM2go Music Manager\updates\
2. ⁠Any archived downloads — the file would've come from fwupdt.xmradio.com, roughly 2008–2010
Hardware folks: if you have a GEX-XMP3 already on V1.19 and the skills, a flash chip dump would work too — happy to help verify it's the right thing.
Please don't send:
• The Music Manager installer or the update tools (I already have them)
• "XMp3 firmware" 1.08 / 1.18 / 1.30 files — those are for the Audiovox XMp3/XMp3i, different hardware, and flashing them onto the Pioneer could brick it
Grateful for anything — even a lead.

Request Searching for the lost German dub / German Intro of the animated series "Monster Allergy" (Aired on KiKA / ZDF / ORF between 2006–2015) – Check your old European satellite / DVB-S captures!

Post image
15 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I am trying to track down a piece of childhood nostalgia that has become completely Lost Media: the German dub of the 2005/2006 animated series "Monster Allergy" (co-produced by Rainbow S.p.A., Futurikon, and the German broadcaster ZDF).

While the English, Italian, French, and Dutch versions are widely available on YouTube and DVD, the German dub was never released on home media. Every single German upload was wiped from YouTube years ago due to copyright strikes. At this point, not even the German theme song/intro exists online.

My main goal is just to hear/see the German intro again (or even a short clip), though finding a full episode in German would be an absolute dream!


How YOU might actually have this on a hard drive without even knowing the show:

Because the German channels KiKA and ZDF broadcast unencrypted (Free-To-Air) across all of Europe via the Astra 19.2°E satellite, many European TV archivers, continuity collectors, and data hoarders have raw full-day .ts transport streams, VHS rips, or OnlineTVRecorder (OTR) backups from these channels.

Even if you never intentionally recorded Monster Allergy, you might have caught the show—or at least the 90-second German intro—as an accidental byproduct ("pre-roll / post-roll buffer") while recording full broadcast days, Halloween specials, or adjacent shows!

Here is the exact broadcast schedule when the German dub aired:

  • KiKA (Oct 23, 2006 – Nov 28, 2006 & Jan 3, 2007 – July 13, 2007): Mon–Fri at 13:40 – 14:05 CET. (Byproduct clue: It aired immediately before *"Pet Alien"** at 14:05. Any recording of Pet Alien with a few minutes of pre-roll will have Monster Allergy at the start!)*
  • ORF 1 [Austria] (Nov – Dec 2006): Mon–Fri at 12:50 – 13:15 CET and Saturdays at 06:25 CET (during the Confetti TiVi / Okidoki block).
  • KiKA (Spring/Summer 2008 & starting May 23, 2009): Saturdays around midday (in 2009 at 11:50 – 12:15 CET).
  • ZDF (Summer 2009 – Summer 2010 during the "ZDF tivi" morning block): Saturdays at 06:00 CET (2009) and 10:25 – 10:55 CET (May/June 2010). (Huge byproduct clue: In May/June 2010, it aired right after *"Bibi und Tina"** [10:00–10:25] and right before "Disney's Classic Cartoon" / "The Suite Life on Deck" [10:55]. If anyone has a recording of Bibi und Tina from ZDF in 2010 that ran 2 minutes past 10:25, the complete German Monster Allergy intro is at the end of that file!)*
  • KiKA (March 4, 2012 – April 29, 2012): Sundays at 06:50 – 07:15 CET, immediately before "Sesamstraße" (German Sesame Street).
  • KiKA Halloween Marathon (Oct 31, 2014 & Nov 1, 2014): Aired as a 6-episode marathon starting at 12:05 CET on both days during KiKA's Halloween weekend special (alongside "School for Little Vampires" / "Die Schule der kleinen Vampire"). Anyone who archived full Halloween TV broadcasts across different years might have captured this entire block!
  • KiKA (Sept 3, 2015 – Oct 6, 2015 – Final broadcast!): Mon–Fri at 13:15 – 13:40 CET. Since this was late 2015, digital PVR/DVB-S recordings (.ts / .mp4) or German private tracker / Usenet / OnlineTVRecorder archives from autumn 2015 might still have it sitting in an unsorted folder.

If you collect European/German TV continuity, full-day broadcasts, commercial breaks from KiKA/ZDF/ORF, or 2000s cartoons in multiple languages, please check your drives for these dates or adjacent shows! Thank you so much for any leads!

I’ve had some luck asking around before but I’m looking to see if anyone has a set of all the Detective Conan movies. Not really interested in the tv show (it’s an insanely long show) but I want to get a wide range of the movies to see if I like it after watching the crossover movies he had with Lupin the Third. Ranges from 1997-2026. Seems his movies are elusive here in the states . The show itself is available in varying degrees across a bunch of services but the movies aren’t. Had some pretty good luck getting all the Lupin stuff in one big flush so I’m hoping someone will be nice once again :)

I'm trying to find the raw files for the background sounds that are on Mac (it would either be .m4a or .caf) and I'm having a lot of trouble getting it. I'm also specifically trying to get the steam sound but if I could get all the sounds, that would be appreciated. For some reason I cannot download them even though there is a download button, I assume this is just another bug from MacOs 27, I also tried letting it play for a minute to see if it'll automatically download which it used to I think. I tried doing the same thing on a computer that was on an older version but it did not work. I had tried searching .m4a" and".caf" in the finder on my computer but it was not what I was looking for. I also had tried searching ".zip" in the finder but no useful results either. If anyone has the audio files or knows where I can download them directly I would appreciate it.

Since I got the "you'll be banned" warning, I'll add that this isn't available on Amazon and I don't see it on the Internet Archive and a standard Google search shows that it exists, but nothing I saw relates to a viewable copy. Sky internet services don't seem to be available within the US, so it's not possible to watch it from there.
