I read that your work flow include systematically a Line TBC and Full Frame TBC.
|
It has to. Two TBCs for two separate tasks.
- The line TBC is for cleaning the image quality.
- The external full frame TBC / frame sync is for correcting signal problems.
I know that you're reading this older workflow guide:
Good Methods to Create DVDs (Video Workflows)
While accurate and helpful, this is being expanded soon.
Be sure to refer to the full TBC guide:

Some good tips here, too:
Video Hardware Suggestions; Best VCRs to Convert Tape to Digital
That's another page getting updates in the near future.

I would like to know if Full frame TBC can be optionnal because I think that I have good signal in my VHS tapes. All VHS-PAL tape that have been used 1 time to record in SP mode. They have been played very few time.
|
All VHS tapes have absolutely horrible signals. This is non-visual information, so it's not something you can see. The entire format is fairly chaotic and noisy, and it was actually designed that way. It included a number of cheats to create passable home video quality. Television sets were further designed to be compliant with this mess. It's not uncommon for pre-VCR televisions to have problems working with VCRs and the VHS format.

Actually I put a lot of hope in my HR-S7600EK to play with IQ. I would like to get a better deck (S9XXX serie), but as far as I know, the only advantage seem to be the drum system, it may be a big advantage....but to be honest I have no clue.
|
The 7600 and a 9x00 machine will generally perform about the same.

I read about loseless compression format possibility of Huffyuv. Then I looked at PAL capture card. I don't know if it's me but it seem that ATI model that have been mention on this forum are hard to find. I don't know if you can suggest me or link me a list of respected captures cards (priority PAL; but if it can do NTSC too would be a +).
|
This post was asked in a PM, and you've since asked other questions on the forum. I think you've already figured out the capture card issue, right? To recap, some ATI models are hard to find (AGP, PCI-E, PCI), while others are still fairly easy to locate (USB2, PCI). It varies by model.

My personnal computer have a Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-1800 card tuner...I have no clue if it's good, anyway I think that if it have capture capability it will be only in NTSC.
|
That's very likely, since it's a hardware card, and tuned to ATSC from what I recall offhand. (Could be wrong, but too lazy to hunt for spec sheets and look it up. You can do that part on your own.
)

Many interrogations but I am not hurry to get your opinion.

Well, this was definitely a slow reply. Always ask questions on the forum, not in PMs, to get the quickest responses. PMs to Site Staff are best avoided entirely, as it's a bottleneck for our otherwise smooth process of posting and answering questions, which has taken quite a bit of effort to put in place.
Thanks.
