I've been digitzing family vhs tapes. My current workflow after capture in
virtualdub is to deinteralce and crop/resize in hybrid. What I'm missing and wanting in my workflow is a way to cut/edit the videos so that I can remove extra recording time at the beginning/end of the video because I didn't, for example, end the capture in a timely manner. The other thing I'm looking for is a way to do some audio denoising. The recordings have that white noise hiss that isn't deafening, I just find it unpleasant. In the past I was using Adobe Premiere Pro to cut/edit and also using the denoise function at a low % which gave me results I was quite happy with and I also liked that I could preview the changing quickly in real time but I've found that Premiere doesn't give me the option to keep the video file in the rec.601 color space and automatically converts when exporting it slightly changing the color, which I don't like. Plus running it through Premiere is obviously re-encoding it again which I don't like. Should I just use
virtualdub again after capture to edit/cut down the video length? Is
Soundforge my best bet for denoising audio without re-encoding the video? I like keeping my workflow down to as few steps as I can but any suggestions would be very welcomed.
