2 Attachment(s)
Hi,
To keep story short: -I have some old recorded TV shows (cartoons) I would like to capture and clean. -I tried it with my old VHS and random TV card I had through composite, and it went pretty well. Recordings are in good condintions, and cartoons are not chalenging. -I lost that TV card by mistake, and i manage to get better VCR for free. Now, i would like to set up capture hardware as good as possible with what i have, and without spending tons of money. My setup: -PC where i can install required OS -VCR Thomson VPH 6600N. I couldn't found any info about it, so only thing i know is that it was expensive at the time, and have 4 heads. I could find service manual though, attaching it. -I am looking for Ati All-In-Wonder, but without luck right now -I found that TMC is desirable, but it could be build in in VCR, can be standalone, generaly improves quality, but not really sure if i need it. Is there topic where i could read more about them? Could't find any Could you look at it, and give me your thoughs what i could do with it, where can be problems, etc? Also, i have few questions which i could find answer for: -How to connect VCR to capture card. I tested it with composite, but wanted to use RGB, since i'm most familiar with it. I checked service manual, and it looks like i have right pins in scart connector, connected to "B", "G", and something unreadable (i hope for "R"). Is it th right idea? If i buy capture card with VGA/DVi port will it work? Attaching snipped section of schematic. -What differnce in quality could be between my setup, and good setup? Does anyone have some footage comparision? -Any Ati All-in-wonder card will be good? As long as it have connections i need? -Should i capture footage in raw format, clean and compress? Or compressing before cleaning wouldn't make a difference? Basicaly, i have some knowlege about video signals from retro consols, i read some articles and threads, but needs some clarficartions and help with sorting out all this things. Thanks for any help :) |
