SSTV Signals/Sounds

[Mellow 73]

So I was doing what I normally do which is browse youtube when suddenly I came across a video with a secret annotation at the end. the annotation lead to another video which in the description had some XML (I think thats the term) and Binary code to decode which was pretty neat and then I played the video. What I heard was what seamed to be random beep noises that seemed somewhat like a phone. (Listen to this to know what I'm talking about.) And I thought it sounded familiar. After a few minutes of listening to it, it hit me! Thats an SSTV signal! so I went to get a program to decode the signal and what did I get? More code! -_- So the point of this thread is I want to know if any of you guys have ran into things involving SSTV Signals/Sounds/Codes (Besides the one from Portal as almost everyone knows about that) So yeah share your experiences with SSTV!

I think Kerbal Space Program had something like that, though I don't remember for certain that it was specifically SSTV. It was an image obtained from putting sound through a certain decoder. The sound could only be heard on a single location on a single planet, with no indication of its location (unless you used a certain mod) and it's supposedly the first step in a long chain of easter eggs that will lead up to something special... when they get around to adding more of it.

 

There was also an announcement about 0x10c that was secretly a riddle on how to decode the announcement into a message on how to decode it a different way, which resulted in a further way to decode the message into a website which contained an emulator for the in-game computer. Not SSTV, but it certainly was a complicated way to send a message.

That definately sounds like SSTV to me. I'm gonna have to find that easter egg as soon as I can get off the earth... XD In due time I will get to it...
