Yellow line at right edge of capture?

[Okiba]

Hello,

Some of the Tapes I have been capturing recently suffer from a yellowish bar on the right section of the video:

Is this just noise? should I mask it out? or It actually can be fixed later on with Post-processing?

Thanks!

That is not a yellow line, it is more of black and white edge due to lack of chroma, it is inherit to Video8/Hi8 recording systems.

Oh. Thanks for clearing it out. So It sounds like something I should be masking?

You can crop horizontally in vdub to the limit of the active video area and resize to a legal H resolution, You can add both filters at the same time (crop filter first), However your aspect ratio will not be accurate since you are cutting beyond the 704 area.
Note: Do not crop vertically, just leave it at 480.

Following Lordsmurf advice, I don't do any cropping to my videos. Instead - I mask during post-processing with VirtualDub. I wanted to know in general if I should be masking that issues - or there's a way to solve that post-processing and I should not mask it as it can be solved.

Attaching to the post. Thanks.

That's just frame edge noise, and come from many things. For example, the optical edge, if this was a camera. But it could also be chroma/sharpening/etc artifacts, as mentioned.

Mask it, and move on.

It was indeed a Camera. All footage I'm currently capturing is from my father old Video camera. Thanks again Lordsmurf :-)
