My apologizes if this is the wrong forum, but I'm hoping someone might be able to help me out. I have a VCR/DVD recorder. Some of VCR tapes have a hissing sound that is transfering onto the DVDs. I've done some research and I heard there is a way to fix this by somehow removing the audio track running and then run it through some program that will remove the hiss noise. I honestly have no clue how to do any of this or what programs I should be looking at. Can someone please help?
It's a somewhat involved procedure but here it is: 1. Copy the video files off the DVD 2. Use VOBtoMPG to get your MPEG2 file for editing 3. Demuliplex the audio out of the MPEG file using TMPGENC (or any similar software), this produce a .m2v (video) and .mp2 or possibly .ac3 (audio) 4. Load the audio file into a audio editing program like Audacity (free) or if you want to pay Sound Forge and Goldwave are excellent 5. Use a filter to fix audio problems, may take some trial and error 6. Then multiplex the audio and video back together again 7. Create a DVD again using DVD Authoring software 8. Burn DVD It seems harder than it is and after 1 or 2 it will become easy.
If the audio is ac3 decompression to wav will be required unless you use sound forge with the ac3 plug-in.
Chroma thanks for the help. I'm stuck on step 3 though. TMPGEnc is giving me problems. It keeps giving me errors. What other programs can do this step??
What is the error? You have your MPEG file saved (.mpg) with no problems? I have never had any issues with demultiplexing ever.
Will dvddecrypter allow you to Demux at least 2 hours of audio?? The program I'm using now only allows you to demux 10 mins for some reason.
Chroma45 TMPGEnc just keeps crashing everytime I try doing something with the program. So I think I'll try another program and see if I have better luck. Thanks anyway.
