    What format is this video in? If you already have it in an AVI format you could look at cropping the bad part out of the movie though that would require reencoding it and losing quality. Really we need to know what format the movie is in, and also if you are looking to clean it up or just remove the section at the bottom of the screen that has the noise.

    You have the video on tape and DVD? I would probably use the DVD to VCD guide on this site to copy the dvd to a format easier to work with. During the conversion process there is a point where you can crop the video to get rid of any black lines and you could remove the portion of the screen with all the noise. The problem with this is you will lose any of the menu's.

    Does that make any sense?

    What your seeing is the full video feed...With TV signals it cuts off the last few scan lines so that bar at the bottom of the screen never appears. However most capture software pulls the entire signal from the source so that bar appears and needs to be cropped off to get rid of it in your capture. There is a bundle of software out there that supports cropping video capture including "virtual dub"
    Hope I was able to help out!!
