#Sampler(length=24)

## MPEG size = ((Total frames/MovieTimeInMinutes)/24) * MPEG sample file size ##

This combination of filters worked very good for me. Here's a sample CoorsLight.mpg
I recorded a football game to vhs with EP mode- it came out very noisy and had rolling interference lines. I captured at 528x480 with huffy codec. adjusted brightness, cropped, cut out the bad frames :wink: , saved to huffy avi again and encoded to kvcdx3 with the above script.
