Camcord
by LudoCrypt
Camcord, a Quilt mod for Minecraft 1.20.1, applies a VHS-inspired camera filter that the player toggles in-game with F7.
What it does
Activating the effect gives the screen a stylized, old-camcorder look. The filter is not based on how a real VHS camera or player works internally; it is a visual approximation. A set of configurable options controls the look, including fisheye zoom, fisheye scale, fisheye pinch, near plane and far plane bokeh effects, and a rendered 4:3 border. Bigger values zoom and scale the screen further out, and a bigger pinch value lowers the distortion.
Camcord is a client-side only mod, so only the client needs it and servers run without it. It works alongside shader and performance mods such as Iris, Sodium and Optifine. Cloth Config API, Quilted Fabric API (QFAPI) or Quilt Standard Libraries (QSL), and Satin API are required, and the mod is licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, making it open source. Builds cover 1.19 – 1.20.1, and the latest Quilt file is 1.1.0+1.20.1 for 1.20.1, released 2023-08-06.
Key features
VHS-style filter toggle
A stylized camcorder look is switched on and off in-game with the F7 key, which can be rebound in the controls menu.
Fisheye zoom and scale
Two sliders zoom out and scale out the screen, with larger values producing a wider, more compressed view.
Fisheye pinch
A pinch setting controls the strength of the fisheye distortion, with higher values giving less distortion.
Bokeh and 4:3 border
Near and far plane bokeh effects blur parts of the scene, and the filter can render a 4:3 border around the image.

What the author says
Camcord is a simple mod that adds a VHS-inspired filter to the game. This isn't based off of the actual inner-workings of a VHS camera and player, but it gets a stylized effect of an old camera. Activate the effect with F7. There are a few mods which you need to install to play this mod.
