I think your observations with respect to the different captures have been pretty spot on, and it looks like you have the levels sorted out. None of these look particularly terrible - mostly just a...

You'll want to crop out the head switching noise and the borders when analyzing color since those areas may artificially introduce white or black levels that aren't actually a part of the picture.

The ghosting on the right edge of Spike's head under the whiskers (and also on the right hand side of the pole to his right) curiously only really appears on the JVC capture. Is Decode blurring it...

Some further thought: this is probably the most important part, and in addition to or instead of using a reporting tool for this, I'd confirm visually by pulling up both samples each in their own VD...

This will probably prove a separate point, but if you haven't already and are working with capture hardware and a computer that came out of the 2000's, maybe try different operating systems, e.g....

Not sure if you mean it's falling out of sync over time rather than a fixed amount across the entire duration starting from the beginning, but Amarec prevents the former by stuffing the video full of...

I'd suggest spending more time with JVC sooner rather than later. If the Mitsubishi HS-U748 is anything like the U778 I just unloaded, it'll look overly smooth and soft in comparison (really nice...

I got both of my 45s from that seller. They both turned out to be about as good as can be expected - the second was the first "for parts" unit they put up, which turned out to work fine once I put...

The way they word things in both their writing and IG videos is very social media content coded ("... in 2026").

I'd been following this for a bit now. It's curious how most of the noise about...

You may want to crop the borders while adjusting the contrast/brightness since non-representative areas of the frame like the head switch noise on the bottom tend to force the waveform to spike at...

I've done both, and a combination of both. My JVC HR-S3912 fails when it encounters certain hues of red, so I designated that the junker deck (though it still works fine otherwise) and manually...

It's not clear to me at this point which is most representative of the source since I haven't done any kind of comparisons with a reference. The MV45 appears lighter than the 3912. I guess my...

Brightness, contrast levels for studio tape captured?

A philosophical question, I guess, for people who've spent time capturing studio-produced tapes. I recently picked up a JVC SR-MV45 and I'm noticing that it renders luma a bit brighter than the...

IMO: I'd say the chroma shift is the only thing that really needs help.

I noticed that your captures seem to have a similar noise profile with spikes in your levels - is this a GV-USB2 thing? ...

Going off topic, but some variation of filldrops could do it. Just flip the conditional around to look for differences instead of duplicates. I think JohnMeyer also once did something to compensate...

What to do about rust on bottom of equipment?
