I mainly watch on a projector or pc monitor, both getting their signal from the PC. I am about to convert VHS tapes (analog camcorder footage) and was not sure if I should deinterlace or not. Does this apply even with progressive displays like HDTVs? What kbps rate is the audio? 224? 192 ( acceptable) or 160?Īnything viewed on a television must be left interlaced for best quality. How long is the film? 2hrs, 4hours, etc?Ĥ. Are you making a Fancy menu with Main Menu, Chapter Menus, extras, etc, orģ. Need on the DVD format, as opposed to trying to make quality better,īecause on VHS transfers, you really can't make them better ( overall Quality wise as far as playback)Īgainst what you have to work with at the input stage.įocus at the end stage, as far as your preset, what you need and set your encoding preset to that:ġ.

How you affect "Best Quality" on the capture front end is by having the following:ġ. INPUTTED INTO THE MAC TO BEGIN WITH, and encoding that footage at a highĮnough Bitrate to match the original footage input, as so that compressionĪrtifacts do not WORSEN the footage being transcoded to MPEG-2. In this case, "Best Quality" will refer to closely matching WHAT WAS ORIGINALLY "Best Quality" preset in Compressor is for the END RESULT, not the Beginning result. You do NOT deinterlace the video while it is being captured, but when you encode toĭVD ( MPEG-2 assets), then the interlacing will occur in the Compressor Preset.Īs for the "Best Quality" argument, your looking at it the wrong way. Having done thousands of VHS to DVD transfers from TBC VHS VCR to my Canopus ADVC-110 to the Mac, lol jagabo's post in the forum is the way to go. If those arguments are right, I'm wasting time doing the Best Quality and making no good DVD out of a QT movie interlaced. "There are really no diference between the DVD presets "Best Quality and Fast encoding" for a VHS captured material". A guy saying that after capture a VHS material, before send it to Compressor to do it's job (as a QT video), we should first deinterlace the video to avoid "blocks" on final compressed video.
