My brother in law is a mad geelong supporter, so one of the first things I recorded on my brand new VMC was the grand final.
Coming up to Christmas, I thought I'd burn him a nice little DVD with some nifty menus on it.
So I bumped the footy through Video Redo and removed the commercials, saving it as an MPEG.
I then loaded this into Nero and noted some really bad horiztonal line effects (no not Geelong jumpers
) - predominately around the jumpers, but also on the skin tones, advertising signs during quick movement, ground lines etc.
I checked the source DVR-MS - and it isn't in the source. I checked the MPEG which Video Redo chruned out - and the artifact is there - hence VideoRedo caused it (or the codec VideoRedo used!)
Is there a better format to save the output in? Is there a way to configure video redo (or the MPEG codec?) to use a different algorithm to remove the artifact from this type of recording?
Note - When I used VideoRedo, ffdshow would ask me "Did I want to use ffdshow? for this - just this once, forever, not at all, not this time". My memory was I avoided making a permanant setting - because I wanted to be able to change the setting if it wasn't any good. I'm not getting this option anymore. I'm also not getting the option to save in dvr-ms format either - which I did the first few times I used VideoRedo.
Hints/Ideas/Suggestions?
