I agree with your method. I just don't have the budget for multiple VCRs and processing equipment. Unfortunately in this case, k.i.s.s. equals expensive.

LS,

Steve,
What do you mean by JVC recorder? If you are talking about DVD recorders, they won't suit my needs. I feel that transferring the video to DVD just creates more work for me in the future for...

hm, I hope I can get some of this done in VDUB since the filters are GUI. I'll try the logo remover. Also, I concure with your theory of a bad head. The bad head was, however, on X generation and not...

avisynth

Thanks, I'll try it out. I don't really know how to use AVIsynth but I'm no stranger to codeing. It does not look much more difficult then editing an INI or a JAVA .config file. I just don't know the...

This is badly shot 2nd or 3rd generation SLP. The color is blown out and there is plenty of chroma noise. This is one of the worst clips I have.
