I have a copy of a commercial vhs tape that my friend wants coied to DVD because teh tape has been played over and over, and is not availabe for resale anymore. Anyways, I have a video stabilizer that removes the Macro, but the picture is still terrible. I tried watching it on the vcr hooked to the tv and it plays fine. Other sections of the video play fine. These have not been watched as ofter. Any ideas?
hmmm- could be just worn out and unfortunately not a whole lot you can do except capture what's left or try and find a another one in better shape on ebay or pawn shop.
I thought of that but thought that if the video played back fine when watching on TV, it should capture with the same quality. Is my thinking flawed?
What hardware, and what format are you capturing to? What player are you testing it in (on the computer)? There are too many software variables involved, but generally, what you see on the TV should be virtually identical to what you see when it's encoded and burned to disk and played back on a TV. Everything inbetween can totally mess up a capture.
Using ATI All in Wonder USB 2.0 and just watching it on the computer. I haven't burned it yet because of the clarity issue. What format should I be saving to? I am still learning and am having many problems.
Unfortunately, I know almost nothing about ATI stuff. Never used it, don't like it, however, there's an excellent guide (or two) at www.digitalfaq.com
