Quite by accident, I found a video covering one aspect of the Dutch 80 years' war. Inspecting the homepage, there are 20 videos on the 80 years’ war, each averaging an hour. Saving this for a later date, I did view the two-part series ‘The Real Macbeth: Macbethhad.
I was surprised at the amount of detail presented and is visually rich with illustrations, maps and scenic shots. Worth a view.
At the ‘Defragged History’ Facebook page you will find plenty of 80-year war material (maps, museums, re-enactment photos).

Finished viewing all currently uploaded episodes of the 80 Years’ War and am amazed at the wealth of information presented. The latest episode (1619) builds up to events expanding the religious friction leading to the 30 Years’ War. These will be presented soon. The episodes are well illustrated with maps and portraits of important personages and military advancements developed by Maurice of Nassau are covered with an entire episode devoted to the Battle of Nieuwpoort of 1600.

Episode 19 – Conquerer of Towns
Just uploaded. Excellent episode covering the early stages of the Eighty Years War (1624-1629) in Europe. The Siege of Den Bosch is a fine example of technique of drainage; water areas protecting the Spanish, and relocate it to protect the Dutch besieging the city. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HAutZNRTVEw
