If I will keep captured size 720x576 (do not crop to 704x576) and apply that bizarre PAR 1150/1053 I will get quite accurate, not distorted encoded frame, correct?

The fist link: "The proper way of doing it is to crop to 704x480 (704x576 PAL/SECAM)"
I am not sure if this is the best...

What is the actual PAR of HuffYUV files captured from VHS tapes with VC500?

Since capturing with Virtualdub there is no PAR data in the saved lossless HuffYUV file’s header.

OK, convinced. I will try MPEG, using SD, but now I might need a better MPEG encoder than is in Power Director.

Looks like you are using MainConcept, would you recommend MainConcept Reference 2.2?...

Lordsmurf, thanks so much. I will run some test to find the best option.
Would it make sense to use H264 to encode 720x480 @15 Mbps instead of Mpeg2?
H264 at the same bitrae will preserve more...

Just to make it simpler.
Is it a good workflow to encode HuffYUV AVI files (captured from VHS) as interlaced with H264 (Power Director will resize it to 1080) and let the HW player to deinterlace...
