VHS to digital

[Fe 26]

Josh, SSJN, when you've done this, is it natural to get all this grain? Its almost like scanlines or something.

[Fe 26]

I guess some of it is interlacing

[Josh]

I'll download those joints if I ever get home and take a look.

[Fe 26]

Josh has not been home in days.

[Josh]

You're more right than you'll ever know.

I only watched the first Hulk clip, but it looks awful. Do you have more than one VCR to see how that affects the quality? I was reading about this a couple of years ago before I jettisoned my VHS collection in a move.

I remember that finding a good VCR to record from was very important.

[Fe 26]

Funny enough, that is suppose to be one of the best vcrs every made.

[Fe 26]

Stilling picking at this.

What's the best video format to ultimately share the final product? Mp4, flv or mkv? Something new? My experience is this area is slim these days. I don't do much video downloading anymore.

[YellerDog]

H264 encoded MP4 is generally pretty nice and lightweight

[Josh]

That in the mkv container is pretty much the standard.
