I just noticed than when I crop out the overscan on my VHS captures that the resolution becomes something other than 352 x 480. Then when I try and author to DVD it forces a recode because it's not DVD compliant. I tried a capture in AIW with the record cropped video box checked and I also tried to crop and resize with VideoRedo both with the same result. I tried to author with TAW5 and VideoRedo and both said a recode was required. Am I missing something?

You shouldn't crop and resize interlaced video. You can mask the area, after capturing or maybe during capture if your software supports it.

Mask, never crop -- even though some of the filters used to do this are called "crop". Confusing, isn't it!?

What program are you capturing in? You can crop in both VirtualDub and ATI MMC.

You don't. ATI MMC has *two* "crop" settings. One crops, but both together make it a mask. You get black borders on the image, to cover up the overscan. This is best done only for MPEG, not AVI. In fact, AVI is best done in VirtualDub altogether.


This was an unanswered question or unresolved issue found during a site audit. It's hard to have an FAQ when the answers are missing, or final outcomes are unknown. At The Digital FAQ support forum, questions are never intentionally ignored, and may have been missed due to a forum glitch or human error. More details on the audit. (In some cases, threads have been edited/updated with newer information.)
